Horror

Lisa Templeton begins a new job as a cleaner at High Hopes Hospital, a mental institution in Amityville, Long Island. Initially delighted to get the job, Lisa soon realises that all is not as it seems. Intimidated by staff and the psychotic ramblings of the patients, she is further unnerved by apparent supernatural occurrences on the night shift. To preserve her sanity Lisa must uncover the mysterious history of the institution and it's inmates. But the truth is far more terrifying than she could ever imagine.

VIBE

This film feels like a classic haunted house tale transplanted to a decaying asylum. Expect a slow build of dread, unsettling atmosphere, and plenty of jump scares as a new employee uncovers a terrifying past. It's a no-frills, spooky experience.
