Smith, Kemi Kentebe and David Robert Lenik. The synopsis: “Africa, 1878. A group of white mercenaries attempt to steal a tribal mask, unwittingly releasing an ancient evil. In present day, the mask is purchased as a prop by a dysfunctional band of adult filmmakers. When a fiery young woman named Mary [Riddell] accepts a job with these low-rent wannabes, the ancient evil finds the perfect conduit and unleashes unimaginable carnage on the unsuspecting cast and crew.”
