Warning: Spoilers
A group of a half dozen criminals working for Lambert (Giancarlo Esposito) kidnap Abigail (Alisha Weir) and hold her hostage in a remote mansion. They keep their real names a secret so character introduction is done by Joey (Melissa Barrera) doing reads on people. Joey is the medic in the group whose looks is inspired by Ally Sheedy in "The Breakfast Club." Joey cares for "Tiny Dancer." Her identity is unknown. Joey is shaken up when she says, "I'm sorry about what's going to happen to you." Frank (Dan Stevens ) discovers she is the daughter of Kristoff Lazaar ( Matthew Goode ) who is spoken about as a Keyser Soze. The group becomes creeped out stops drinking and stands guard for "Vazdez" the legendary assassin who works for Lazaar. In true horror fashion, the call is coming from inside the house.

This is similar to home break-in films where the criminals must fear the residents. This one was done very well. I enjoyed the majority of the characters and the acting was good for a horror film.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
