Hold Your Breath

When you drive by a graveyard, don't ever forget...

R 2012 · 87 min · ★ 4.2 · Horror, Thriller

There is an old wives tale that you should hold your breath when passing by a cemetery because an evil spirit rejected by both heaven and hell can get inside of you when you inhale. Somewhere in a carload of college kids on holiday doesn't follow the rules when driving by a graveyard, allowing a spirit of a recently executed serial killer to get inside him/her to begin a killing spree of body-jumping carnage.
