Description:

Sugar Street Studio offers a thrilling, vintage-styled journey into the heart of a classic horror-comedy. The story begins when a charismatic producer enlists a group of skilled young creators, known for their elaborate horror props, to construct an immersive haunted house. This isn't just for show; the plan is to use it as a film set inside an old, famously haunted film studio.

The studio's dark history looms large: exactly 30 years prior, an actor, while in a clown costume, descended into madness, culminating in a tragic fire that claimed both his life and his lover's. As the young creators dive into their project, they inadvertently awaken the restless spirits inhabiting the studio. Through eerie and often comical encounters, the kids start communicating with these ghosts. What they uncover is a shocking revelation: the long-accepted version of the studio's tragedy is a mere facade, hinting at a much deeper, more complex, and sinister truth. This film is a passionate homage to the beloved Hong Kong horror comedies of yesteryear, blending genuine scares with hilarious supernatural antics.
