Night Screams

In the quiet suburbs of Wichita, Kansas, a young athlete prepares to leave home for a promising future. The night before his departure, his friends gather for an exuberant farewell party, turning a modest house into a buzzing hub of laughter, music, and teenage anticipation. The celebration is meant to be a carefree bridge between high school memories and the uncharted world of college athletics, set against the ordinary backdrop of a single‑family home lit by flickering porch lights and the glow of a backyard pool.

At the centre of the festivities is David, a talented football player on the cusp of a four‑year scholarship. Though he carries the weight of expectations from coaches, teammates, and his own family, the evening offers him a rare chance to unwind among a familiar crew. Friends like D.B., Russell, Joni, Lisa, Frannie, and a handful of others bring their own quirks and tensions, creating a tapestry of youthful camaraderie that hints at unspoken rivalries, budding romances, and the inevitable clash of personalities when the night stretches long.

Unbeknownst to the revelers, a darker thread weaves through the night’s festivities. Two deranged inmates have escaped from a nearby asylum, desperate to evade the police and seeking any refuge they can find. Their presence transforms the party’s lighthearted atmosphere into a palpable sense of unease, as the house’s familiar corners become shadowed by the possibility of an unseen danger lurking just beyond the hallway lights.

The film balances the exuberant energy of a coming‑of‑age celebration with an undercurrent of suspense that tightens with each passing hour. As laughter begins to fade into nervous glances, the audience is left to wonder how the fragile barrier between safety and terror will hold, leaving the night’s promise of a fresh start hanging in a precarious balance.
