The scariest maze in America has been documented in Rich Fox’s The Blackout Experiments, which is set to World Premiere at the Sundance Film Festival this weekend.
Joining Rob Zombie’s 31, Kevin Smith’s Yoga Hosers and Mickey Keating’s Carnage Park, The Blackout Experiments begins when, “A group of friends discover the dark underworld of the ultra-scary, psychosexual horror experience called Blackout. But what starts as a thrill ride through the unknown becomes deeply personal, developing into an obsession that hijacks their lives and blurs the line between reality and paranoid fantasy.”
It’s unclear if this is a straight forward documentary or something more scripted, but the Blackout haunt is for real, and it’s allegedly pretty badass.
A clip was shared this morning, via TheWrap, that introduces us to Abel and Hannah, who both sign a waiver to enter the Blackout, alone. He explains why it’s so terrifying, and why he decided to press “enter”. I’m dying to press “play” as soon as possible. Watch for our review out of the fest, which begins in a few days.
