A visceral, gore-soaked siege horror film where trapped moviegoers face escalating demonic possession and slaughter in a confined, increasingly nightmarish space.

A group of people are trapped in a West Berlin movie theater infested with ravenous demons who proceed to kill and possess the humans one-by-one, thereby multiplying their numbers.
