  If you go in with zero expectations, then you will enjoy this movie. Acting is solid, characters are believable and nothing outrageous happens that would make you say "You've got to be kidding?!" And there is a small twist at the end.

  It was pretty bad actually...not that it's surprising or anything. The whole thing was like a bad "Saw" imitation. The plot was so unoriginal. A bunch of teens stuck in a "game" where they have to kill each other to survive. Most of the actors are pretty lame. Most of the movie is them screaming and cussing at each other. I can scream and cuss too! Except when I do it, it's probably more interesting. There was a good or somewhat good twist at the end though and that's where the 40% came in. In the beginning we see the killer talking with his psychologist or doctor or whatever. Apparently, the killer was in a mountain climbing accident and had to kill his three friends in order to survive. The psychologist tells him that no one else would've made that choice and that is why the killer has to keep seeing the doctor. The accusation the psychologist made is what sparks the killer's experiment with the kids. The whole experiment like I said was stupid and unoriginal. But at the end, we see that the experiment was performed on the psychologist's son. The son was the one who started killing everyone in order to survive. I thought that was a nice twist. Especially since there were little hints in the storyline like when one of the friends of the son said "you talk about the killer like you know him!" Well obviously the son knew something about the killer, since his father worked with him. I thought it was clever. Anyway, this review is probably confusing for those that haven't seen it and for that I apologize. I didn't feel like summarizing the entire movie then explaining it. It's a bad movie, so skip it.

  Unlikable characters act in predictable, unrealistic, unlikable ways. The "deadly game" holds no suspense, no surprises, and a pointless antagonist.

  I was going to be nice and give this a two, but when I didn't remember a damn thing about this movie and I just saw it the night before, well that's under-2-worthy. Actually now that I recall more, some of the gore is not so bad and is a bit fun. Still nothing here you… More
  I was going to be nice and give this a two, but when I didn't remember a damn thing about this movie and I just saw it the night before, well that's under-2-worthy. Actually now that I recall more, some of the gore is not so bad and is a bit fun. Still nothing here you haven't seen 50 times before 50 better ways in 500 other movies. Not mediocre enough to enter the cheese realm, and yeah, there is nothing else to say about this forgettable waste receipt.

  A good flick with a very smart plot.

  A group of college students go to a distant summer house to celebrate their graduation and party hard throughout the night. They find themselves in a very difficult situation when a psychopathic killer gets in touch with them and plays a deadly game where the participants are forced to kill each other in order to survive. I found the plot to be good and very thrilling. This movie is much like the horror movies from the late 90's and actually not that bad. The only negative thing is that it was pretty predictable at times. So if you're looking for some ordinary horror movie with a lot of killing, this movie would be a good candidate.

  Stupid plot, pointless deaths and dislikable characters. Super predictable, trying to copy scream but failed.

  It was a lot better then I expected. The idea is great and actually made me think what limits I could be pushed before I break down. They tried a little too hard to make it go full circle but it definitely had a goretastic horror feel with several jumpy moments and a whole lot of blood.

  I thought it tried to be like Saw but failed to deliver that threatening impact of Jigsaw. The characters were not interesting, you wouldn't feel anything if they died in the movie. Even the death scenes were recycled. Another waste of time.

  This entertaining horror/thriller flix has some similarities with ¨SAW¨. The running time is somewhat short at about 76 minutes but the film makes up for that with its fast pacing. The acting, direction dialogue, visual and audio are fair and competent. There are some well-done gore scenes and a couple of twist here and there.
