What it’s about. Eine Gruppe junger Leute hat vor Monaten mal an einem Casting für eine neue Fernsehshow teilgenommen und das ganze schon fast wieder vergessen, als sie einer nach dem anderen von der Straße weg "gekidnappt" und in ein stillgelegtes Gefängnis verfrachtet werden. Dort gilt es, eine Nacht lang vor installierten Kameras Prüfungen zu bestehen, die mit ihren größten Ängsten zu tun haben. Die Produzenten glauben an einen Hit, machen die Rechnung aber ohne den Geist eines sadistischen Wärters, der einst in der Anstalt systematisch Morde beging.
