Using the scenery of Halloweentime haunted house attractions, this film follows a group of friends as they travel cross-country in search of a fabled "extreme haunt" that goes beyond the boundaries in attempts to scare its patrons. While it dabbles in the form of mockumentary, it's yet another found footage with impossible camera angles and no explanation behind who pieced it together. It is no surprise that many of the scenes deal with juvenile banter as the characters all act like teenagers on spring break. The only genuine scares come from the delightfully frightening attractions along the way. When the plot is finally back on track, the team deals with harassment from select haunt actors who lead them down a dangerous trail to their intended destination. The third act's potential for suspense is squandered with an abrupt end.
