47/100 A tour guide for a "fear" museum sneaks into the museum the night before its grand opening with a bunch of friends. Guess what happens? If you go into this knowing it's low budget with some not-so-bright teenagers and one contrived scene after another and all it's doing is trying to entertain you, it's really rather fun. Has that drive-in B-movie quality that I remember so well from my youth. Not particularly good but not as bad as you'd think. -- DrNostromo.com
