Ever since she was a little girl, Iris has wanted to be a filmmaker. For the last five years though, she's been trapped working in reality television, directing episodes for a series that's barely able to compete with Ghost Hunters. Iris sees her big chance to prove herself when she gets sent on assignment to her hometown of Black Falls, a small town harboring an abandoned insane asylum that has a dark history of excessive shock therapy. Filming inside the asylum brings back childhood memories for Iris, memories of sneaking into the asylum with her friends to shoot homemade horror movies. Little does Iris know, her life is about to imitate her art.

Missed Opportunity Horror... Our intro feels nostalgic, with the Muse of young friends in the moment doing what makes for a fun adventure. Like many youths out there, adventures can often lead to mysteries and possibly even lead into trouble, or characters are having that moment. Strangeness is creeping into our young characters' adventure, and it's actually quite traumatic at their age, heck most ages. Even though the film started with a Goosebumps vibe, it felt a bit more tragic than usual. It appears that the trauma that happened to our characters before is still kind of prevalent in their lives today. Our film is finally getting interesting, and It's really becoming fun to watch and feel the madness unveiling itself. It got truly bizarre and found its bearing in the finale and its conclusion. Overall, it was an entertaining story, with novel practical effects and an ending that made me smile.
