Wake Up is a 2023 slasher horror movie about young activists breaking into a home superstore to protest environmental issues, only to be hunted down in a brutal massacre by a sadistic night guard.
Synopsis: A group of young activists break into a home superstore after hours, determined to make a bold environmental statement. However, their protest turns into a nightmare when they realize they’re not alone. Trapped inside, they become the prey of a deranged security guard whose obsession with primitive hunting goes far beyond sport. As the aisles become his hunting grounds, their fight for justice twists into a desperate struggle for survival. Stalked through the towering shelves and shadowy corridors, they must outwit a relentless predator who sees them as nothing more than his next kill. With every exit sealed and no way to call for help, the night descends into a brutal game of cat and mouse – where the only rule is kill or be killed. What began as activism has become a blood-soaked battle for survival.
