Synopsis/Details
Dawn, an introverted college student, has invited her two high school best friends, Lena and Jayden, over for a slumber party - their first in ages. After some drinking and much gossip, they invite over the skeevy drug-dealing duo, Zack and Mitchell. However, the party is crashed by the arrival of a mysterious package, labeled TRINITY. Inside they find several VR headsets, and a card challenging them to "survive the night." The group decides to play the horror game but soon realizes the grievous consequences for losing are far more real than they thought.
In the game, they find themselves trapped with no apparent means of quitting. The only way to escape is to find three cassette tapes, all while being hunted by a methodical, lumbering masked killer. As the group unlocks the clues, they begin to question one another's motives and what brought the game to them.
A modern twist on the "slumber party massacre" sub-genre of slasher flicks, welcome to RE-SPAWN!
