Plot

A gang of teens escape a drug rehabilitation hospital after committing murder and grand theft auto, led by a man named Luck. They drive to a rendezvous point with the demented Reverend Salo and his depraved wife and their daughter Grace, who is a GUNWO-addicted slave. When the teens show up, they encounter demonic entities.

Cast

DVD Verdict called it "a distinctive, compelling and occasionally brilliant work". Scott Weinberg commented that the movie would not likely appeal to people who predominantly viewed mainstream horror films but that "those with some patience and a taste for something small and different will certainly earn some solid creeps from this one." Film Threat also gave Horror a positive review and praised the film's pacing, as they felt that this enabled Tomaselli to build up the movie's "creepy suspense". In contrast, AMC'S FilmCritic panned the movie, commenting that "Horror has plenty of scary moments, but it’s so confusing it’s hard to be genuinely frightened."
