Plot
Professor Johnathen McCormack (Mickey Rourke) is the professor of film at Northern Wisconsin University.
He teaches a brilliant class of freshmen interested in breaking into the media industry and instructs them alongside assistant Professor Serian Isley (Maya Rudloph) his longtime friend and occasional girlfriend.
Having discovered an ancient uncovered woodland that has yet to be documented he warrants for an excursion for his freshmen film class to go out and capture the site and talk on how it once was the site for salem witch burnings in the 16th-17th century.
Renting out a tired old combi van he collects his partner Professor Isley and a group of eight students and his freshmen camera-man.
The group descend into the woodlands after their combi comes to a stop at a certain point and eventually stumble upon their pre-destined location.
From there the rumored ancient curses of the burnt witches are proven to be true and one by one the group succumbs to death, re-animation and the true history of the village that once stood there is revealed.
