Shepard Lambrick (Jeffrey Combs), a seemingly philanthropic aristocrat, expresses an interest in helping them. When he invites her to an exclusive dinner party, she accepts. Also attending the dinner party are seven more desperate individuals. They soon find themselves trapped in Lambrick's mansion and forced to play a sadistic game of Would You Rather, where the winner will be awarded untold amounts of money. As the game progresses, the dilemmas Iris and the other players face grow increasingly deadly. (c) IFC

Critic Reviews
-
Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times
Hardly a most dangerous game night at the movies.
-
Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
This restrained exercise in torture porn benefits from its clever concept and restrained execution.
-
Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
A derivative horror movie with highfalutin pretensions.
-
Sara Stewart, New York Post
Director David Guy Levy's witless homage to the "Saw" franchise and its ilk.
-
Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News
With a bit less grisliness, it could have been a mystery dinner-theater performance.
