Centered around one of our bat-shit-craziest urban legends--the one that asserts you should hold your breath when passing cemeteries, lest you huff up a spectre--Asylum's Hold Your Breath stars The Hot One from 30 Rock and some other people as a group of young vacationers stuck in the contrived scenario of simultaneously camping and fighting for their lives. The threat? A serial killer's ghost--accidentally inhaled by a pot smoker who brazenly ignored graveyard respiratory decorum--passing itself around like the pipe it flew in on, one-by-one possessing the campers' bodies to get back to murdering. Basically, it's the 1998 supernatural-thriller Fallen, now with less Denzel Washington, more stock horror clichés and muddled anti-drug sentiments.

Don't do drugs, you guys: inhaling is the gateway to murdering all your friends with an electric hand mixer.
