A collection of people are invited to an exclusive island. The owner offers them the opportunity for them to live out their fantasies but they quickly learn that things aren't as they seem.
I had low expectations for this film initially as it looked like a B-grade horror movie, at best. However, it showed some promise with the fantasies-within-reality layers and some other interesting themes, plus purely as a thriller.
Unfortunately, this was short-lived as it quickly degenerated into horror cliches and unravelled. The plot got sillier and sillier the more it went on, culminating in some ridiculous twists at the end, all of which were just twists for twists' sake. Very stupid.
Almost as galling was seeing Michael Pena ham it up as the owner, Mr Roarke. Very cringeworthy performance.
Avoid.
