For those that enjoy truly atmospheric horror similar to those of the late 60s and 70s will love this film. For those looking for gore, action, and cheap thrills this isn't for you. This film had the feel of such independent classics as "Let's Scare Jessica to Death", "Carnival of Souls", amongst others. It also has a bit of HP Lovecraft going for it. It stars one of my favorite horror film actresses that I just wrote a review on for the film Summer Camp (2015), Jocelyn Donahue (House of the Devil, The Frontier). It also stars Joe Swanberg (You're Next, V/H/S), the always intense Richard Brake (31, 3 From Hell), and Melora Waters (The Accursed, The Butterfly Effect) and directed by Mickey Keating (Carnage Park, POD). The daughter of a famous actress receives a letter to return to a town where her monthly was buried due to vandalism of the gravesite. Once she and her boyfriend arrive they find it nearly impossible to leave as they encounter strange people and strange events.

Trivia Fact: This was filmed in my county about 5 miles south of where I live. I just leaned this at the end of the film and loooking it up.

After seeing some reviews and the description I was sort of psyched to see this one, i was expecting a good ole gory grindhouse crime film from how it was described by many. What i watched was a poorly acted, terribly written, with sub par SFX even for then, and overall boring.

I detest horror-comedies. There are maybe 3 I like or endure. So The Foo Foghters Studio 666 took me by surprise. They knocked it out if the park with this one. The homage to both 70s but mostly 80s horror. Great use of practical effects. Sweet score/soundtrack. Great one liners. Fun Easter eggs. Watch and listen LOUD!
