Synopsis

Spoiler shield

When seven malevolent spirits are unleashed to possess the tenants of a dying mall, it falls to a jaded ex-stuntman, his headstrong daughter and a would-be Daoist priest to stop the undead before they spread onto the streets beyond.

“Three spirits linger, seven circle my altar.”
