What is Init!ation about?
During a Whiton University's pledge week, the carefree partying turns deadly when brutal murders start befalling the students, sending Ellery into a race against time to uncover the truth behind the school's dark secrets and the horrifying meaning of a recurring symbol: a single exclamation mark.
Initiation is a 2020 American slasher film directed, co-produced, and co-written by John Berardo, inspired by his short film Dembanger, described as an edgy slasher about a cruel social media game that gets twisted out of control and takes place at a university where a masked serial killer is murdering teenagers.
