Overview
Ex-soldier Frank Brayker is the guardian of an ancient key that can unlock tremendous evil; the sinister Collector is a demon who wants the key so he can initiate the apocalypse. On the run from wicked mercenaries for almost 90 years, Brayker finally stops in at a boarding house in New Mexico where — with the help of its residents — he plans to face off against the Collector and his band of ghouls, preventing them from ever seizing the key.

The battle between good and evil comes to a head at a remote boarding house where residents com under siege by bloodthirsty demons in this gory shocker. It might not be the most exciting, the most coherent, the best edited, or even close to the best horror film out there, but there’s just something about this film that just puts me in a damned good mood. Billy Zane probably has a lot to do with that. He’s amazing in this as the big bad. The rest of the cast does well with the material and it’s just a fun horror film that feels like an extended Tales From the Crypt episode.
