From beneath the floor boards of an old abandoned hospital a stench is eminating. Small

town New Zealand will never be the same again. Stench begins innocently

enough, but grows into an intense and fantastic tale that will seize your

imagination and refuse to let it go. This is Mike Johnson at his gripping and

Gothic best.

"a teen-flick horror movie set in small town New Zealand... a consummate performance."
