Having found the ideal squat, they break in and go about the merry business of dressing the stark interior to reflect their artistic selves. Darkness pervades their new dwelling place, a darkness through which they discover the full implications of their intrepid choice. A

In the end we crawled deep into this Spiderhole and all we found was a truly beaten dead horse.
Drearily familiar, lazily constructed, and simply not very interesting. No spiders, either.
It's not perfect. Heck, at times, it's barely passable.
While it ticks a lot of the right horror boxes, the skeleton just never pops out of that cupboard.
While Simpson's roving eye is sometimes nastily effective, the unremarkable storyline clings doggedly to generic cliché and too many crucial plot points feel rushed and unpersuasive.
Writer-director Daniel Simpson ratchets up the tension, fully acquainting viewers with the soon-to-be victims before letting fly with an all-daggers-stabbing orgy of violence...
Hole-y crap.

I liked the overall general concept of the film, but it fell flat almost immediately. The kids are drugged and when they come to all the windows and doors are bolted with steel and their cell phones are gone, and they end up turning on one another, and basically becoming one complete hot mess. Even the "last girl" wasn't that smart. She had the killer right where she wanted him, and instead of killing him and fleeing, she smacks him on the head and runs off. Not to mention there wasn't really a single person I was rooting for, I found the film to be a typical horror flick that will be easily forgotten.
