Karen, a young psychiatric nurse, boards the last subway train of the night only to have it stop in the middle of the tunnel. Suddenly, her nightmare begins: a mysterious cult has decided that it's the end of the world and the only way to save the souls of the living is to kill them in cold blood. As those around her are brutally murdered, Karen and a handful of survivors must face the homicidal cult, supernatural forces, and their own fears of Armageddon in order to survive.

How the overall score of 5.2 is worked out

A film's three strongest kinds of scare count, with some weighted. Averages bunch up in the middle, so the result is then spread out from the average across every rated film.

  1. Each kind of scare is weighted: gore loses a point, and creepy and jumpscares gain one.
    • Gore 4.0 − 1 = 3.0
    • Creepy 5.0 + 1 = 6.0
    • Jumpscares 4.0 + 1 = 5.0
    • Suspense 5.0, unchanged
    • Psychological 4.0, unchanged
  2. The average of the 3 highest (creepy, jumpscares, suspense): (6.0 + 5.0 + 5.0) ÷ 3 = 5.3.
  3. The average film scores 5.4, and the gap from it counts 2 times, so scores use the whole scale: 5.4 + (5.3 − 5.4) × 2 = 5.2.
