Rookie police officer Jessica Loren has been assigned the last shift at a closing police station and must wait for a hazmat crew to collect biomedical evidence.

Jessica is left to fend for herself in the Devil's playground.

4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme

Horror that gets in your head: paranoia, madness, doubting what's real and ideas that stay with you. Not how a scene looks (Creepy) or feels in the moment (Suspense).
Psychological 6.0 is strong (5-6 on the scale):
- Paranoia, madness or a story that makes you question what's real
- A big part of the film, and it stays with you afterwards
1. 1-2Mild

3. 5-6Strong
4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme

How the overall score of 5.7 is worked out

A film doesn't need to do every kind of horror to be scary, so the overall score only uses its three strongest categories. Any of those three scoring 3 or lower counts as zero and takes off another 0.5.
