(1980)
A trio of female reporters find themselves staying overnight in a house occupied by a hostile being lurking in the basement









A low-budget horror film that leans into rural isolation and slow-building unease. It remains largely obscure, known primarily to collectors of deep-cut early-80s exploitation cinema. Its tone sits between psychological dread and body-horror suggestion.
Collectors are drawn to its claustrophobic rural interiors and its unsettling sense of something living just out of sight. The restrained effects and slow pacing give it an unusual atmospheric texture compared to more violent slashers of the era. Its obscurity makes it a niche VHS-era curiosity.
Directed by Danny Steinmann, it was produced with limited resources and modest distribution. It circulated mostly through home video markets, where it gained minor cult attention over time.
