Plot:
When Roy and Elaine Keenan realise their family is drifting apart, they decide that something needs to be done. Roy forces his work to take a back seat and they seize the opportunity to recreate a vacation from their past. A peaceful stay in a quaint hotel is just what they need, however, that is not what is in store for them.
With four deranged murderers patrolling the seemingly mundane halls, the odds are definitely not in the Keenan family’s favour. Roy must fight for his life and those of his family as their simple weekend getaway truly turns into a vacation to die for…
There is currently a fourth-level IndieGoGo campaign to raise additional funds for post-production work. Director Michael Leavy told Bloody Disgusting:
“Over 90% of the movie is already shot and in the can. It’s currently in post-production but due to the pandemic, there were a lot of unforeseen expenses we didn’t initially plan for in order to keep everyone safe and work efficiently. So to balance that out we put our heads together and decided what better way to do this than to offer fellow horror fans a chance to come on board with us on a project that has some amazing talent in it. These are people we all grew up watching, especially if you’re a die-hard horror fan like myself and get this …. the best part of it all is the movie is almost complete!
We went right into production after completing Terrifier 2 with pretty much the same crew, including David Howard Thornton (aka Art the Clown himself) and Damien Leone (who is the director of Terrifier and Terrifier 2 and of course does all the practical FX on the films). Damien holds nothing back and brings that same gritty 80s style we all know and love to Stream.”
