Whispers of a shadowy satanic cult connected to dozens of missing people have ignited a firestorm of rumors. Some believe the tales are true, while others dismiss them as a hoax. In the wake of a brutal wave of journalist layoffs, Sarah is ready to chase the story no one else dares touch. But as she digs deeper into the horrifying mystery, she’ll soon realize that risking her life for that one shot may be the worst mistake she’s ever made. A DIRTY JOB BUT SOMEONE HAS TO DO IT Discover the secrets that lie behind the walls of the Solomon manor in this obscure third person survival horror made by the creators of The Night of the Scissors and Cannibal Abduction , inspired by the satanic panic from the 80s and found footage movies.
