Four strangers win an all expenses paid flight to New York, thanks to a social network site called Altogether.
Once aboard the flight, they are invited to play a game which could win them prizes, and without reading the terms and conditions, they begin to play.
After a few personal questions, secrets about the four are revealed, much to everyone's disdain, and when the group or individuals refuse to answer a question, a friend on their profile is killed.
Soon the faceless voice turns the group against each other, and guess what? They decide to go for each other.
After reading the reviews of this, I wasn't really looking forward to watching it, but it sounded okay, and I think Johnson is a good actress, so why not.
We are introduced to the group and as soon as you see them, you just know who will die first and why. The cocky tubby one was my first choice, because he was annoying and archetypal in the yuppie sense.
Second was the supposed glamorous one, who did nothing but giggle and/or moan.
The other two I wasn't too sure about. Once the film locates to the plane,it becomes more interesting and it turns out to be a very solid thriller. The DVD cover states its a cross between Saw and Catfish, I get the Catfish connotation, no matter how loose it is, but the Saw one is just to get the numbers up.
It's not gory, it's intelligent, and actually surprised me in the last third. There is a twist of course, but it's really quite clever and for once in a low budget thriller, different.
Well worth seeking out.
