Ascent to Hell (2014)

 

Real estate agent Kate is asked to show the old Circle Clothing Factory which has been abandoned for years.  Kate arrives on time to meet a team of people working with a celebrity who plans to set up a celebrity fashion line called Quite Contrary Fashion by Mary.  Good god. 

Mary isn’t sure if she can see celebrities coming to this neighborhood, but the engineer and architect talk about how it has good light and good bones. But Mary’s bodyguard Roman says he has a bad feeling about it.

Everything is going well until they go up to the sixth floor which is the only floor that hasn’t been renovated.  There they find a weird old paintings on the wall.  They also find some old shirts and jackets which Mary tries on. Because old clothing that’s been stored in an abandoned warehouse for years would never be dusty or gross.

Too bad nobody realized there was a fire in the factory when it was active and 149 employees lost their lives because the owners locked the doors.  So now the group is stuck on the sixth floor with a non working elevator and a locked stairway. Can they escape? Will they kill each other before the ghost does? Do you care?...No, no you don’t.

Ridiculous dialogue

“I was just kidding around. You don’t have to be such a jerk about it.” - Mary to Roman, after he didn’t laugh when she made fun of him
