Very Happy With This Film
I have to say, for a low budget, straight to video film, this movie just plain rocks! I mean, it's funny, the script is strong, the acting is great, the direction is tight, and the effects are well done. Everything that I could have wanted was in here, plus more.

Let us start with the technical side of things. This disc is very well done. The picture is sharp and crisp, and the sound is clear and strong. Also, there are some very nice extras with a behind the scenes video, and some interviews, as well as trailers and other assorted goodies. The movie itself is one that goes back to the days of Night of the Demons, Return of the Living Dead, and Hell Night. It uses a tired old cliche of a plot, and turns it on it's head with some very nice dialogue, a good sense of humor, and strong characters. It also helps that the cast handles everything amazingly. Everyone not only seems great on their own, but they all compliment each other so well that this really is a well done ensamble piece. The movie also looks like it should have had a wide theatrical release. The cheap, close up nature of most straight to video flicks, and instead is so well directed that I never once thought that this was a low budget production. It also helps that the effects are very well done, and never pull you out of the action (which is almost non-stop). And while the humor is previlant, it does not over take the horror of the film, but instead adds to the depth of the characters.

High Recommended.

Absolute Crap. Worth a watch.
I rented this film expecting it to be a B movie, and was not disappointed. It's a dumb, cheesy movie, and made a cold Sunday night much more fun.
The general plot is no big surprise. There is a book that contains the incantations that will cause a portal to "the other side". Brad Douriff plays the crazed professor who owns the book. He has been waiting for years for the right time to read the incantation and have someone kill him (!) so he can cross over. Enter a bunch of frat/sorority pledges on a scavenger hunt, who mortally wound the professor while trying to get the book. After their hunt is over, they have to spend the night at a haunted house. They leave the dying professor behind (they are at least decent enough to dial 911 for him), and head over to spook central with the book. Once there, the expected hell breaks loose.
A saving grace to the movie is that the characters are not actually the stereotypes they initially appear to be.
Is this the most original movie ever made? No.
Is it great cinema? Hell, no.
What it is is funny and weird, with a little mild scariness. Watch this with a tub of popcorn and suspend all higher brain functions.

The Hazing
This horror flick has you on the edge of your seat - wanting to know what is going to happen next and the twists and turns add to the suspense - and when they hit - boy do they ever hit hard!

The film builds slowly in the beginning, but once it takes off - it does so with sheer entertainment. I know this is true, because it grabbed a hold of my wife - and didn't let her go until the film ended. Understand, she isn't a fan of horror flicks, so the fact that she was compelled to know how it would end - is in itself a testament to the writer.

The actresses are hot - and I mean really hot, and the acting is damn good. There is also a touch of humor - delivered at just the right time.

I highly recommend this DVD - for I promise you, you won't be disappointed.
