Synopsis: When a film crew moves into an abandoned psychiatric hospital with a shadowy past to shoot a low budget horror film, they get more than they bargained for. The late nights and lack of sleep begin to take a toll, and the longer this crew works, the more the leaky, wet building seems to be coming back to life, feeding off its new inhabitants. As the shoot wears on, members of the crew exhibit increasingly strange behavior leaving those still sane realizing they need to get out of this place before they too succumb to the building's infectious hold, the only problem, the old hospital is not ready to let them go.

- Can I bum a smoke?

- Yeah.

Hey, Jess?

- I need you to do me a favor.

- Yeah?

Babysit Chris for a while.

Andrei is acting funny.

Besides, I need more photos anyway.

Go explore. Take him with you.

- All right?

- Okay.

All right.

Thanks, babe.

Yes. Okay, let's go.

Yes, it's all under control.

Not an issue.

Yes, I completely understand.

When can I start?

Don't worry about anything.

Everything is completely under control.

Yes. Don't worry about me.

Oh, okay.

Oh, hey.

I didn't know you were down here.

What are you doing, following me?

No. Sorry, I got lost.

Who are you talking to?

Chris?

Beth and I are gonna take

a walk around the building,

if you want to come...

just explore a little bit.

- Sure.

- Okay.

Wait. Hold up.

Dude, check that out.

- Oh, dude.

- Yeah, what! Whoa.

Sh*t, dude.

What is this?

What is all this?

- Whoa!

- Where are we?

I don't know.

How many people

do you think died here?

I don't know.

People die everywhere.

They don't just come

to the morgue and keel over.

No, I mean how many people

do you think died in this hospital?

A lot.

Look at all this stuff.

Hey, look at this thing.

What is that?

I think it's like

an ice-cream scooper,

but for brains.

Give me that, dude.

I'm gonna scoop your brains.

I'm gonna scoop yours.

Blah blah blood!

Hey hey hey.

Check out that thing.

What do you think that's for?

They probably put something

in here, you know?

What if that's where

they keep the bodies, man?

Do you think there's bodies in here?

I don't know, dude.

I hope so.

- Open it up.

- No, I'm not gonna open it up!

I'll give you 10 bucks.

Deal.

- Okay, ready?

- Yeah yeah yeah.

- All right, three...

- Two...

one.

Oh ho ho!

Nasty. Nasty.

Look at that tunnel.

Where does that go?

I don't know. Hello!

Is there anybody alive down there?

Is anybody alive in there?

Dude, what the f*** was that, man?

Did you...

you heard that, right?

Yeah, dude.

Let's get out of here, man.

- Okay.

- This place is really creepy.

Come on.

I have to admit,

you're not what I expected.

Oh? And what's that?

I don't know.

The writer type...

dark, moody and complex.

You're just so...

Simple?

I was gonna say "nice. "

Ah, the nice-guy curse.

Yeah, I've been trying to shake that.

That's not what I meant.

This must be

the water-filtration system

that Jurgen was talking about.

Do you think that's true,

what he said?

That the doctor slipped

something into the water?

I don't know.

But I did find this casebook

upstairs in the library,

and it had pictures of the doctor

forcing the patients to drink

this vile-looking liquid.

Pretty scary stuff.

It's creepy.

- Can we get out of here?

- Yeah, let's go.

What a mess.

What do you think these files are for?

Old patient files, I think.

- I love this.

- What?

The doctors, they cover

these girls' eyes with black bars,

but it hardly conceals their identity.

Plus all their information

is right here.

- What's up?

- I thought someone was just...

Is it Jess?

Oh! Whoa, whoa!

- You okay?

- Yeah, I'm okay. Are you okay?

- Yeah.

- Oh, sh*t.

- Are you guys all right?

- Yeah.

Somebody needs to fix the hole.

What's the holdup now?

The union says we need seven guys.

- Seven guys? How many do we have?

- We've got five.

Five? Well, where are the other two?

- They're coming.

- When?

- I called them and...

- We need them here now.

We only have an hour before...

Oh, Jesus Christ, what's that?

Sh*t. I got it.

- Oh!

- You okay?

- Yeah.

- Ha! Don't fall.

Why was this place shut down?

Funding, mostly.

And the fact that

the hospital director killed himself

after he...

drowned his wife and kids

in the pool downstairs.

Jeez.

Apparently, he blew

his brains out in my office.

Oh.

That's comforting.

This is it.

This is the end of the line.

What is this place?

Some sort of observation deck?

I saw a bat in here the other day.

I know. If anything comes out,

I am going to freak out.

I really don't like

furry flying animals.

Yep, that's the apartment set

right through there.

Oh.

Beth, they need you

over here as a stand-in.

That is if you and Jess

are done babysitting that writer.

Yeah, okay.

I'll be right down.

All right, well, I guess

they're ready for my close-up,

so I'll see you guys later.

- See ya.

- Bye.

"Babysit"?

If it's any consolation,

you're better trained than the dog.

Yeah?

Yeah, hello?

Hello?

Oh! F***!

Ha! Got you.

- Was that you on the radio?

- Yes. What took you so long?

I've been back there squatting

for like half an hour.

- I got lost a little bit.

- I think my ass is asleep.

- That is so unfortunate.

- Work it out.

- Totally worth it. Back to work?

- Yeah.

Hey, Jurgen?

Yeah, I totally got her, dude.

Ha ha! Did she wet her pants?

I don't know if she peed.

Let me check.

- Shut up!

- Yeah, she peed.

You are such a son of a b*tch.

You know that?

Oh, yes!

Oh, so cool! So cool!

Awesome! I mean it.

Oh.

Ha! This is so cool.

What is this?

What is this?

Oh, it's the fake blood.

Oh, man!

Oh, man, oh!

Ha ha ha!

This is so cool.

Ha!

What is this?

Oh!

Oh, nasty! Nasty.

Oh! Oh, man.

Hi.

Is there something

I can help you with?

Um, no, I just...

I was just looking around.

Oh.

Hey, um...

you're the one who did

those head shots from before, right?

- The ones with the blood on the wall?

- Oh, yeah, I know.

Yeah, those were

f***ing awesome, man.

Yeah, you like that sh*t?

- Yeah, I like that sh*t.

- I love that sh*t.

- Yeah.

- Want me to show you how that works?

- Could you?

- Absolutely.

- I'd love that.

- Yeah, just go sit down over there.

- Awesome.

- Yeah yeah, go ahead.

- Um...

- Right there, get a bench.

Okay.

Close your eyes, just like that.

Okay, so what's it gonna be?

- Just sit tight.

- Come on, man.

All right.

Oh!

- This is so cool.

- Now...

don't look.

Right. Not looking... got it.

That's kind of cold.

- It sort of tickles.

- Shh.

Jesus.

Hey, you hear that?

What?

Who the f*** said

you could listen to music?

- We're holding.

- Ah! I don't care.

- You understand me? I don't care.

- "I don't care. "

- Yeah.

- I hear you.

We're supposed to be working here.

We're not supposed to be

listening to f***ing music.

We're not supposed to be giving

the wall a boom-mike rubdown.

- Well...

- We're supposed to be working.

- You understand.

- Yeah, yeah.

- Get rid of these f***ing things.

- Okay.

Jesus f***ing...

So this is where

the good doctor killed himself.

You're serious?

I mean, there's probably a couple

splatters left behind there, but...

That is messed up.

Okay, let's get you to where

you need to be going.

- So this is where we are now.

- Right.

- This is where you need to go.

- Right.

And this is the elevator

to the third floor.

- Third floor.

- Third floor.

- Think you can find your way?

- I think I can handle it.

Besides, I wouldn't want you to

babysit me any longer than you have to.
