Plot:
A group of celebrities attend a press gala at the world famous London Tombs tourist attraction.
What starts as a night of fun and fright turns into a night of tension and terror when evil spirits of the Damned seize control of the animatronics to wreak havoc on their subjects. Celebrity status cannot rescue them from the unspeakable horror that lurks in the darkness…
Reviews:
The lack of likable characters and uninteresting killer hobble it badly. The script from Michael William Smith (Death Do Us Apart) desperately needed tightening up. That and more elements geared specifically to the setting.” Voices from the Balcony
