The premise

Siblings Monroe (Monroe Mann) and Hilary (Crystal Arnette) have discovered that they have inherited a lake house and to make things even better, the famous horror author Stephen King is rumoured to live somewhere nearby. They decide to take their friends down to the lake house to check things out, only to find immediate resistance from all of the locals, who insist that King doesn't live in the area. Despite being completely unwelcome, they decide to stay and soon find that people are being killed one by one in a manner similar to several deaths in various Stephen King stories.

Horror Vault's take

When siblings Monroe and Hilary inherit a lake house near a town rumoured to be home to Stephen King himself, they drag their friends along for what should be a fun getaway. The locals are anything but welcoming, and the group's celebrity-hunting excitement quickly curdles when bodies start piling up in ways eerily reminiscent of the Master of Horror's most famous stories. Part loving tribute and part slasher send-up, the film winks at genre fans while still delivering the kills.
