Synopsis

The sexy dark truth about a cursed Hollywood cam-house is uncovered when a half-naked girl is found dead in the pool.

Reviews

Comedy and parody director Will Ryder delivers a supernatural thriller.

When webmaster Brad Armstrong shows Abigail (Riley Reid) around the cam house, introducing her to the girls cavorting before their cameras, portentous music tells the viewer Something Is Wrong Here. A moment later, as the cam girls are practicing oral technique on bananas, we learn that Abigail is uncommunicative and has no family or friends, and Kat Dior tells a friend on the phone that "word around town is that she started the fire intentionally, but I don’t believe that."

After some scary flash cuts of guns, blood, evidence bags and Abigail smiling with blood running down her chin, Armstrong walks in on the banana girls with Abigail, and we establish that Abigail was supposed to do a boy/girl last night, but it was a "weird solo show." Abigail replies, "I did it, with a boy named Danny. I wouldn’t lie to you." Coquettish smile. "I like you too much to lie." But there are secrets: In a bedroom chat, Dior and Armstrong agree that if the cam girls "knew what happened here, they would move out in a minute." 

When a cam girl drowns in the pool, cops Seth Gamble and Sarah Vandella are called in to investigate. "Everything was cool until Abigail moved in," Misty Stone says at dinner afterwards, and it's established that Armstrong's mentor was bludgeoned to death with an axe in the cam house, and Armstrong and Dior moved in after that. Vandella gets the detail on the murder of the mentor, and vows to get the murderer.

A series of weird things happens: Armstrong checks webcam footage of the drowned girl, and she seems to be having sex poolside—but there's nobody there. Abigail gets assaulted by an invisible force, and crawls into bed with Armstrong and Dior, whimpering, "I'm scared." Abigail starts popping up around the cam house in a little-girl dress carrying a music box, scaring people around her. When Armstrong tells Abigail to keep it a secret that they slept together, she responds with a beatific, "I'm pregnant." Armstrong calls a priest to get a blessing on the house, and the priest responds, "Again? I think what we need is an exorcism," but Armstrong cuts the call short as Dior is attacked by an invisible assailant. Absent the priest, Armstrong engages spiritualist Frank Bukkwyd, who explains that an entity wants to impregnate one of the cam girls to continue its legacy. 

Back at the police station, Vandella tells Armstrong that the drowned girl was the sister of a woman who died in a women's shelter fire, and then tags along with Armstrong to the exorcism of the house—which is interrupted by the priest having a heart attack and the sound of gunshots, as Nia Nacci murders Abigail, saying, "That bitch was gonna kill me." Nacci's jail cell clit diddle is observed by Gamble and Holly Hendrix, who start fooling around on their own and are then joined by Nacci when Gamble tells her, "C'mon out, the door's unlocked."

It turns out that Abigail's body disappeared. Cut to Armstrong and Dior sitting on their bed, deciding whether to sell the house or stay. Armstrong defiantly declares that he wants to stay, and when Dior says that they never found Abigail's body, he snarls, "Fuck that bitch!" and all hell breaks loose. 

First-rate camerawork and editing please the eye, Dutch angles and atmospheric music ratchet up the tension, and the cam house setting opens the door for impromptu sex scenes and casual nudity that don't impact the plot.
