  Description：
  Julian and Kevin, two broke construction workers living in a damp basement, stumble upon a terrifying yet lucrative secret hidden within the walls of a remote psychiatric hospital. Desperate for cash after Kevin's medication runs out, they are offered a bizarre deal by the enigmatic Dr. Vincent: earn $300 each for a single night's work. What begins as a simple, if unsettling, errand plunges them into the shadowy experiments of Dr. Marcus, a neuroscientist who believes he can manipulate human emotion and memory through electrical brain stimulation. As they witness patients subjected to agonizing procedures and addictive 'treatments,' Julian and Kevin must decide how far they're willing to go for fast money. Trapped between poverty and a chilling moral abyss, they uncover a password to wealth far more dangerous than they ever imagined. Can they get rich without losing their minds?

    Ron Green had made a mistake, but it wasn't one that millions of other guys hadn't made before him. And maybe he deserved some sort of punishment, like his wife leaving him or his kids hating his guts. But this? Being the main suspect in a single murder was bad enough, but at the same time knowing he was a potential victim of a serial killer was even worse. However, before Green could convince the cops of his innocence, he first had to convince them the serial killer existed, and now they weren't believing a thing he said.
