“Death is the only escape”
Directed by Eli Morgan Gesner
The premise
Fed up with her parents' bickering, poor-little-rich-girl Maya (Dylan Penn) moves in with her boyfriend who is squatting in an old, condemned building on Manhattan's Lower East Side. With neighbors that are meth heads, junkies and degenerates, this depraved hell hole is even more toxic than it appears: After a virus born from their combined noxious waste and garbage infects the building's residents, one by one, they succumb to a terrifying pathogen that turns them into bloodthirsty, rampaging killers and transforms their building into a savage slaughterhouse.
Horror Vault's take
A privileged young woman trading her upscale life for a squat in a crumbling Manhattan tenement quickly discovers that her new neighbours are the least of her worries. Beneath the filth and dysfunction of the condemned building, something biological and catastrophic is brewing. When a pathogen born from the squalor itself begins transforming residents into savage, homicidal killers, escape becomes the only option — if it isn't already too late. This grimy, no-frills horror trades polish for raw, relentless brutality.
