Awakening in what seems to be an abandoned old school, Amy finds herself a prisoner to a hoard of displaced cultish and feral kids.

As supernatural and psychological terror ensues, Amy must find her way out, battling against Zac and the demonic, the supernatural and ultimately her own demons.
Just like a good European ghost film, THE SCHOOL is a claustrophobic, haunting thriller. Combining themes of fear and parenting. And with uniquely balancing classic Japanese horror elements, The School promises to be an occult/pop classic along the themes and styles of PANS LABYRINTH, THE RING, THE OTHERS, ORPHANAGE, DARK WATER and SIXTH SENSE and SINISTER
