Spoiler alert: Group of people in an apparently long-abandoned house, but contains a box of "treasures" that is unexplained. One girl wanders off, finds a room with a cell phone on a chair. She answers... and you can pretty well guess what becomes of her. Her (presumed) boyfriend arrives, sees commotion, finds her, and his fate is left in doubt.
But that's it. Seriously. The entire story. If the material was expanded out to 30 minutes with the same quality, I think it would be great. The production seems professional, and it definitely gives off the creepy vibe required for a good scary movie. Lots of potential.
Worth a look, but nothing to get excited about.

Hmmm. It's spooky enough, but there's no story. Well, if you consider, "People exploring a haunted house die in creepy ways" to be a story, then that's it. Ghosts? Demons? Monsters? Wild animals? Crazy guys? Who knows? There's no explanation whatsoever..
This seems like a real waste to me because it could have been quite good if they'd fleshed it out. I don't understand why they didn't. Clearly it was made for very little money. How much more expensive would it have been if it'd been 36 minutes instead of just 6? Maybe it was just a film school exercise. Perhaps they didn't want to be bothered writing a longer screenplay :(
