Pledge Night

In the shadowed corridors of Phi Up, a storied college fraternity, a new wave of pledges confronts the brutal rites of “Hell Week,” a grueling rite of passage that blurs the line between loyalty and terror. The house itself is a character, its ancient walls steeped in whispered legends and hidden scars that echo long after the night‑time rituals have ended. Beneath the chatter and camaraderie lies a palpable tension, a sense that the past is never truly buried, waiting to seep back into the present.

At the center of this uneasy atmosphere is Bonner, a young man drawn into the brotherhood by a promise of belonging and the lingering mysteries surrounding his family. His ties to the house become personal when his mother arrives, revealing a tragic secret that binds his own lineage to the fraternity’s darkest chapter. Alongside him, Wendy—the girlfriend of one of the pledges—offers a glimpse of compassion and curiosity, her presence hinting at deeper connections that may unravel the veil of secrecy surrounding the initiation.

The film’s tone is a uneasy blend of visceral horror and atmospheric suspense, where the stiffness of tradition clashes with a lingering supernatural presence. An unsettled spirit, hinted at through the whispered name Sidney, looms over the proceedings, suggesting that the house’s history is anchored by unfinished business. As the pledges navigate the oppressive rituals, the audience is invited to wonder whether the true danger lies in the living’s cruel games or in the restless echoes of a past that refuses to stay silent.
