Matthew Dragna (Scott White, or Whyte) inherits a defunct Vegas roadside casino from a deceased uncle, but little does he know that the place is haunted by greasy thugs hellbent on revenge! Revenge and silver. And cheating at cards. But mostly revenge. Matthew and his friends spend the night at The Mysteria and odd things begin happening. They learn of a gruesome murder that has occurred involving the former Dragna and all bets are off. The supernatural trumps reality when specters appear and play by the devil's rules! When the crew realizes they are trapped and bodies are piled in the broom closet, it becomes their quest to beat the house and escape with their lives.

Aces and Eights. Dead Man's Hand. The last cards that gunslinger "Wild" Bill Hickock saw before being shot in the back in Deadwood, South Dakota. A classic American story. People say it's the only time he sat with his back to the door.
Those fateful cards make another dramatic appearance in the next notch on the legacy belt of Charles Band. Band makes movies like gunslingers shoot... From the hip. Sometimes you miss, sometimes you wing 'em, sometimes you nail 'em through the heart. Touted in the vein of "The Shining", the only similarity of this film to Kubrick's is that there are ghosts. Band is closer to Scooby-Doo than Stephen King, but, as Charles states, "...you really can't create anything that's going to have value four or five years from now." This is apparent in the movie. The acting is uncomfortable at times. Haig barely exists for a top-billed character. White (or Whyte) squirms around love interest Sydney. It would seem that the only thing to remedy this would be to turn up the gore and girls, yes? No, not with this one. No nudity. Not even a side boob. One of the characters has an erectile disfunction. No kidding. His death is the best moment of the movie. Way to go Mr. Band.

Seriously, if this movie was edited down to 25 minutes, it would probably be alright.
