Comments: Lots of fun. I have no problems of consequence. The setup is light and flirty. The technology is introduced very well. There's cleavage, and they're off to the races

Now turn your brain off. You can't nitpick at this point, like you can't nitpick a time loop movie and enjoy it. Who's shooting this? Who's editing this? Why isn't this room lit better? Why do they move so slowly or act stupidly from time to time? Stop it

Face acting is difficult, especially when viewers can see deep into your nostrils, and there's some pretty good face acting here, especially from cleavage ... in her big scene that doesn't make sense but is scary as heck

That scene! Lovely

This has all mostly been done before, and I was ready to punt at the first sign of bogosity, but it never came for me. Bravo


Summary: The crew of a horror web series travels to an abandoned asylum for a live broadcast. It soon encounters much more than expected as it moves deeper inside the nightmarish old building.
