Product Description

A desperate producer faced with unemployment has the ultimate reality television program ready to roll. "Chill Challenge" sends five sexy models into a haunted old building where years earlier an eccentric millionaire had kidnapped a handful of unsuspecting women in an effort to force them to be his brides. The idea is simple: Spend a night without leaving and walk away with a cool million bucks! But what these sultry gals don't realize is, as they reveal their deepest, darkest fears to the probing eye of the camera, someone or something is using those fears against them! As they are sent into the house alone, one at a time, to confront their nightmares...and an abomination that will kill them all!

Customer Reviews

Hell Asylum
Sure, there's not much of a plot here and it's very short(about 65 min) but it's very well done for what it is. In my opinion this is what horror movies should be like. All horror movies are stupid, but even moreso when writers try too hard to have a good plot. Plots are not important in horror movies, especially in a b movie such as this. It's got well done gore and is entertaining to watch. Plus stacy scowley is cute.

Interesting concept
A sleazy producer gets an idea for a reality show, he puts five "sexy" girls in a real haunted house and offers them a potential one million dollars if they survive the night.

This is low budget and the acting isn't always great, but it isn't all bad. With a budget it could have been a big movie. My big complaint would be that there wasn't enough story, and it was too fast. The whole thing is 72 minutes long, so there was no opportunity to build up any suspense. Also, it would have been nice if there was a more serious explanation as to why the house was haunted and a better attempt at trying to get rid of the ghosts. A few tweaks of the script and it would have been sweet.

Five lovely women compete on a new low budget reality TV show entitled "Chill Challenge". The contestants [played by: Debra Mayer / Prison of the Dead (2000); Tanya Dempsey / Witchouse 3 (2001); Stacy Scowley / Brotherhood 2 (2001); Olimpia Fernandez / Killjoy 2 (2002), and newcomer Sunny Lohbardo] have to spend the night in a haunted house, where years before an eccentric millionaire assaulted local women, and forced them to become his bride slaves. The winner who manages to spend the night in the house, receives a "non existing" million dollars. The producers girlfriend is already predetermined to win the show, thus the need for no money. The makers of the show will do anything to terrorize the girls on the show, without realizing that the house itself already has its own terror. The ghosts of the former owner, and his dead brides are determined to make their own horror show. Directed by Danny Draven [Horrorvision (2001); Cryptz (2002)] and written by Troma Team vet Trent Haaga / Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger 4 (1999). The director's style is a lot harder edged than most out there, and that is what makes this film great. The movie is filled with splatter & gore effects, yet I'm still tempted to place it in the Haunted House genre. DVD fans take note that their are two editions available - one is a double feature version from Full Moon with Prison of the Dead (2002), and this one with the 16 x 9 / 5.1 special edition from Tempe with tons of extras including a unrelated hilarious bonus feature from Chris Seaver's `Low-Budget Pictures' called Mulva: Zombie Ass Kicker (2001). A splat-stick horror comedy about a young sugar junkie, excited and determined to partake in her first Halloween trick-or-treat adventure "...of her young adult life..." Until the zombies arise from the dead and ruin her chances of a sugar high. Featuring cameos from `Scream Queen' Debbie Rochon (Playmate of the Apes (2002), and president of Troma Team director Lloyd Kaufman. Keep an eye out for more films from these guys, as they seem to really enjoy what they do.
