Death Valley Diary (2004)
A Young Man Kang Film
Mystery/Horror (70min.)

A new experience in terror from Young Man Kang

4 actors and 4 crew members go to Death Valley. . . and are never seen again.

In reality-style mockumentary form, Director Young Man Kang (ˇ°Soap Girlˇ±) weaves a ghastly tale with the desert backdrop as the villain. The slow descent into horror of an intrepid film crew is revealed through the point of a view of a young deaf woman and ˇ°foundˇ± video footage. One by one, without warning, the film crew is terrorized and finally succumbs to the vengeful spirits and murderous mysteries of Death Valley.
