Spoiler-Free Synopsis
Read MoreCollapse
Horror movie from director Wes Craven. In a ramshackle suburban mansion live Man and Woman, two child-abusing slumlords with a horde of crazed, mutilated teenagers hidden in their basement. Into this charnel funhouse of trap-doors, secret passages and electrified doors stumbles pre-teen ghetto kid Fool. Trapped inside after a failed burglary attempt, his subsequent attempts to escape and liberate the couple's surrogate abducted daughter Alice prompt a relentless series of pell-mell, claustrophobic chases through the booby-trapped house, with a blood-crazed Rottweiler and a bondage-suited McGill in hot pursuit.
