Three months after the brutal murder of her father, Liz is talked into celebrating her 21st birthday by her father’s killer... her mother. Liz’s mother is an ancient witch who has struck up a dark bargain with some evil forces: she will never age as long as every 21 years she sacrifices a daughter to the evil power. Liz’s grandpa (who is actually her brother) lets her know she can break the curse as long as she survives her 21st birthday. It ain’t gonna be easy. Her gathered friends are murdered in various supernatural ways and they come back as zombies (one even raps a grim verse to poor Liz). There’s also some POV camera attacks and poltergeist activity going on and Liz’s father comes back as a mirror-trapped ghost to offer some help. It’s cheap as all hell and incredibly charming. Shot in black and white and blessed/cursed with a repetitive and droning score, the first feature from Sean Weathers won’t be everyone’s cup of tea. If you’re inclined to enjoy the more enthusiastic-than-skilled brand of horror, you may get a kick out of this one.
