Jack, Ross Destiche wakes up in an old, abandoned mental institution. He is not alone; four other college students are in the same predicament. They soon realize they are part of a secret experiment conducted by the mysterious Dr. Broward, Brad Dourif.
As the group explores the looming halls, they confront hallucinations and the eerie side effects of a drug they’ve been unknowingly given. They split up, scouring the vast building for the so‑called “Blank Slate” files, which they believe hold the key to their predicament.
