Definition of Fear
Synopsis
Sarah has a hidden agenda to secretly film her three friends as part of her PHD thesis in the psychology of fear. She has set up the weekend to carry out her experiment and film the effect, using hidden cameras, of really scaring her friends.
The friends find an Ouija board, which has been planted by Sarah, and when they start to play the board game, strange paranormal experiences start to happen. They discover that maybe they are not alone, and what was supposed to be a girl’s weekend away, turns out to be a weekend from hell.
