A group of students decides to stage a play in a theater that has been closed for many years after a terrible act of blood occurred inside: one of the actors had horribly massacred the leading lady of the show because she did not return his love. Once inside, the young people find themselves locked in the building and begin to fall one by one victims of a mysterious killer. A plot very similar to "Deliria" by Michele Soavi for this American thriller-horror film released in Italy only for the home video market. Decent: "school" direction and screenplay, a group of decent young actors and nothing else. Worse still, it almost totally lacks "strong" scenes.
