Numbers

I got about 40 minutes into this movie before I couldn't take it anymore. It's bad. I don't mind the torture/gore genre but there has to be at least an attempt at a story and there isn't. It's just people being tortured via subpar special effects, horrible dialogue and seemingly no point. The acting is also some of the worst I've seen in quite awhile.

Don't bother with this one.

Awakening in a demented dungeon, a group of people find themselves chained in a cell and forced to endure a nightmarish game on social media to garner the most likes to earn their freedom, and the more they stay in the cell find a connection to their host that triggered the situation.

This was a pretty disappointing genre effort in the style. The main feature that works quite well here with the genre's standouts is the highly impressive and brutal gore featured here. The various traps and games that are played here where each of the characters are forced to undergo a series of self-mutilation and disfigurement to get their likes across serve this incredibly well with a plethora of brutal and incredibly vicious sequences. With characters having their heads explode, breaking out into sores from exposure to gas, chopping their fingers off, smashing hands with hammers, and other types of scenes throughout here, the bloodshed here is quite effective within here as the game takes place deeper into the film. This effectiveness and brutality are enough to raise this up quite enough despite being the only factor to like here. However, there are several issues here that really drag this down. The main issue here is the film's overall style and approach taking yet another stab at a derided and underwhelming genre with the whole setup of the internet game forcing people to mutilate themselves through torture. It's a setup that comes across as rather pedestrian and underwhelming from the very start, made all the more ridiculous with the laughably unimposing controller that takes one of the most ludicrous means of trying to seem threatening yet is quite problematic. That becomes even worse when the whole reasoning for their confinement and the forced nature of their game just provides a laughably underwhelming and disconnected feel that gives everything one of the least reasonable means for torturing others in the genre which is rather distressing. Combined with an ineffective and inept police investigation that speaks to its low-budget roots with how it zips by the normal means of an investigation, these all manage to hold this one down.

Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, and Brief Nudity.

All i can say is now we know why there's a teacher shortage. 🤷‍♀️

Really though they call this acting? Best line was "he'd say three times two times nothing" or something like that. The "cops" are actually probably somewhat like the real cops in how they are on the job, though.

This movie is the most modern cheesy movie Ive seen. Didn't know stuff this bad passed the level of student film anymore.

Seriously, its like none of the actors have ever been in pain before. They severely underact with regards to being injured. I have nothing else to say other than watch this if you want a good ol' 21st century chuckle.

Not well made at all, poor in every way imaginable. I wish I did not watch this, this has all been done before just way better.. A little research to find that this is a film that was obviously funded through indiegogo, because no one who is legitimate in the industry would give their money to this production company Mahal Empire. Horrible.

Watched the first 10 minutes and this doesn't even cut it for a B horror movie. Acting was lame, effects were cheap, etc etc.

Can't say enough bad things about the whole storyline.

Who wrote the script??? A fifth grader could do a better job.

Meanwhile, please steer clear and save yourself the agony and use the time to watch more interesting gore like The Babysitter.

Nuff said.

DK out.
