Details

Thrown naked into a desolate room with thirteen strangers, Tonya discovers that she is the final contestant in a deadly game. Restrained by lethal electronic collars, the players must utilize hints and tools from a box marked "pieces" to find both an exit and the reason for their abduction. One by one the players are eliminated as their "curfew" begins and the lights go out. With each dead body comes another clue, which they use to discover that one of them is the killer. The question is ... which one?

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
brett_kyle74 While this movie wasn't truly as abysmal as many reviewers have previously stated, it wasn't really a great movie. The overall plot had serious potential, but could have used a bit more development. It was just seriously lacking in some places. I won't even comment about "Saw" or "Cube" rips offs like so many have done. Movies take ideas from other movies every day. How many times has the doomsday scenario been done? Some did it well, some did not. If you go into this movie with the mindset that it's going to be somewhere along the same lines as "Saw", "Cube", and all the other movies that use this premise, you'll be one step ahead. You must also realize that it isn't going to deliver as well as those movies. The premise is fairly vague and the ending doesn't offer much in the way of closure or even comprehension of what just transpired. The acting was actually quite good, with minimal exceptions. After seeing it, you'll be able to draw your own conclusions as to whom those exceptions might be. I wouldn't say run out and rent this movie ASAP, but if you have a chance to watch it (and don't have much else better to do), it should offer a little bit of entertainment.It is your choice.
Ashman711711 CONTAINS SPOILERS****************************************************The setup while nothing original (especially in the low budget movie market) had possible potential. yet the characters mostly all seemed extremely one dimensional for the duration of the film. whiny expandable #1 #2 I'm a recovering this or that. Creepy Guy, Pc version of black guy, the non PC projects Black guy so we know the movie is edgy, the I'm not anyone's friend, the jerk, the smart guy who has his head together, our seemingly main "protagonist"then there's the game itself, a warehouse riddled with hidden clues and items that don't seem to fit together at first and really don't actually until later in the game(way later) so how could the characters have pieced anything together at all? (hell they never used the damn rope for anything constructive)then the game has blackout periods where one of them is killed off each time. this only serves as a way to neatly kill them off without such annoying nuisances as actual Plot Devices.all in all it's not the worst movie I've ever witnessed but man does it have major flaws to it. Spoiler alert ahead *******************************so basically what the hell is the message of the film? is it some kind of sociological experiment? did anyone realize the game is rigged/fixed from the very beginning? Honestly I think the writers lost steam and didn't know a proper way to finish or were hoping with the ambiguous end that they could squeeze out a sequel, or perhaps they just thought they were actually being intellectual. if you want a goofy flick with no payoff and to feel cheated by the end watch this. if you want something that's kinda clever, watch the first Saw or first Cube movies.
joemamaohio Tonya (Ailsa Marshall) awakens inside a room with a collar around her neck, and thirteen other strangers with no answers. Why are they all there? It's soon revealed that they're all a part of a game - to stay alive. One of them is a killer, one is a pedophile, and one is a rapist. As the group begins to turn on one another, they also begin to die one-by-one...some by obvious hands, others when the lights go out. Who is really behind this game, and who will make it out alive? Dare I say it? For a low-budget film, I actually enjoyed it. It was amusing watching and guessing who would die, who would live, and how it would all end. It's like the card game Mafia...when the lights go out, someone is killed, and then everyone left alive suspects everyone else. It's a good film to watch when you have no other options, but it shouldn't be your #1 option.
Connrad Just saw the movie, never got into it, didn't have a story really, someone just thought it'd be cool to make a movie where there's death and I think they wanted it to be a thinking movie, kinda like The Ring.. But with a Saw/Cube concept. Too bad there was nothing that made you start thinking, that's probably because there was nothing to think about..The movie is about a bunch of people who find themselves in a room filled with other totally random people, no one knows why. Then the man on the screen tells them they are there to play a game, which they have no reason to "play" and I never saw what the game was more than killing the others and survive.Could go on more about the movie, but it isn't worth it! I advice anyone reading this to not see the movie. Thanks.
