Brew House (2016)

Five college students disappear when they go to an abandoned brew house to film an episode of their web series.  The explorers are: Megan and her boyfriend Brian; Nick who threatens a creepy guy on the way to the building; Skyler who used to be on the show and has a bad feeling about this; and lastly, whiny unlikeable Billy. She’s not very bright, is jealous of Skyler, and wears a brand new outfit to an abandoned building.

In the 60s the building was an artist community where people lived and had studios until there were some unexplained deaths.  As the group explores, they find canvases and paint, a display of old cameras and a photo lab.

When weird things start to happen and one of the group dies, they want to get out. One says the quickest way is to go through the door ahead, but honestly if she’s dead being quick doesn’t matter. The other says they need to go back the same way they came in.

Everyone argues, makes bad decisions and acts like an idiot. A lot of the movie is really dark since they’re mostly in the dark with headlamps.

Ridiculous dialogue

If you’re going to be homeless, why would you be homeless out here?

No one comes here ever. [They ran into someone on the way in.]

People died. We’re going to prison and shit.
