Plot
A group of young men dare a classmate to reach the porch of a legendary old house, said to be haunted by the thirteen victims of a family massacre. When he doesn't return, the guys must go in to get him.
Opinion
Basically the film is about a group of guys who visit a big house in the middle of the night, what is the reason? look for their lost friend. So the guys decide to go look for it, they tell the dark legend that exists about the house and the people who lived there, and some of them make jokes to others with the intention of frightening them and also impressing the audience. Finally they arrive at the house and begin to look for their friend, but once they are inside, they can not leave, and some of them begin to see ghosts.
The film takes more than 40 minutes to start the action, it is filmed with shaky camera, using the technique that one of the characters is filming everything, and in turn alters it with static shots. Photography is fine, in fact, it is the only decent thing that the film has, for the rest, the script is terrible and the performances are amateur. The director does not necessarily do his job badly but with the story he has in his hands he could not have done anything good.
The film becomes very boring, the dialogues are terrible, and the darkness and the alteration of the camera does not allow the viewer to even entertain with the image. Even though the movie only lasted 1 hour and 26 minutes, I had to work hard to see it all.

Moderate direction and photography, amateur performances, and a very bad script. I would not recommend this movie to anyone.
