The Flight Of The Conchords cast make the transition from Emmy-Award Winning comedy show to feature film in this spoof Horror reminiscent of Kiwi legend Peter Jackson's work that's both hilarious and horrific in equal measure. A supernatural force brings together 2 lost souls united by their love of literature who after a sinister twist of fate are diagnosed with terminal cancer and the pair are sent to an experimental drug-testing facility run by a creepy Doctor (Flight Of The Conchord's Bret McKenzie). When the facility is locked down for the weekend and the drugs begin to take effect, the human guinea pigs begin to experience ominous hallucinations pointing to a horrific murder. Unsure of where reality stops and the drugs have taken hold, the apparitions become more threatening and the only way to leave the facility alive is to discover the truth about the haunting dark secret.

As funny as SHAUN OF THE DEAD, more horrific than SEVERANCE
Too be honest I thought more of the FOTC team, and imagined that this film would be a dark comedy. It was dark, but wheres the comedy? A critics review suggested it was funnier than Shaun of the dead. This was certainly not the case. The puzzle like plot is sufficient enough to keep you watching, but anyone without a love for the FOTC actors would soon switch off.
