The premise

Eight college friends head to a "Haunted Rental" in a remote town for Halloween weekend. There, they play the game rumored to have caused the deaths of seven teenagers decades earlier, Truth or Dare. What starts out as vodka induced fun, quickly turns serious when the dares become sickeningly dangerous and the truths threaten to tear the group apart. When players attempt to refuse the increasingly challenging tasks, they're met with deadly consequences, quickly discovering: you must do the dare, or the dare does you. As the death toll mounts, the remaining players must race against the clock to outrun, outsmart and outlast the simple game of Truth or Dare.

Horror Vault's take

Eight college friends choose the worst possible Halloween getaway when they rent a house with a murderous history and decide to play Truth or Dare — the very game rumored to have killed teenagers there decades before. What begins as a boozy holiday thrill escalates fast, as the dares grow sickeningly dangerous and the truths cut deep enough to shatter friendships. Refusing to play is not an option; the game enforces its own brutal rules. With the body count rising, the survivors must figure out how to beat something that may not be entirely human.
