    Painful to watch !!

    IMDB should allow users to rate a movie 0.

    Painful to watch seriously. Horrible acting, especially by the Kayleigh character. I saw this movie only based on the positive reviews for this movie on IMDB but sampling bias is to blame I guess.

    There is no story to be honest. You could shoot this movie in 30 minutes and still it would be the same. The antagonist and his monologues are so irritating. The director wanted to make it seem profound but it was lame. He keeps on saying about people wasting his time and he keeps wasting his. After a point, it became predictable and I blurted out laughing.

    This is the type of B-grade (or is it C-grade or even D-grade) movie which requires you to leave your brain at home. The first 5-10 minutes seemed promising and OMG did the movie go downhill after that or what. You cannot relate to any of the characters. Repeat any of the characters. Be it the two couples or the policeman or the experimental subjects. Predictable is another adjective which aptly describes the movie. I could predict the twists and turns (which seemed to impress some of the other reviewers) in the movie a mile away. Yawn !!

    Sometimes you get the idea of a movie and do not make it. This movie belongs to the above category.

    A little bit of "American Psycho" vibes...

    I stumbled across this film and decided to give it a chance. At first, it does appear low budget and the first "test", which we would come to learn about later felt a little cheesy but passable. As the film carries on, we meet three lead characters, one of which is rich but has an odd, sort of dry humor/douche like dismissive nature to him. Strange but observant as you watch him. Then we meet the two other leads, one of which we learn some backstory on (female) and the other (male) we only learn little things about as it's revealed.

    Now, watching this film you wouldn't really know what the plot is about but we see these characters live their best life by taking advantage of others with reason. And this is where things start to unfold because of what is first seen followed by what is eventually found. At this point, this is where the film feels more solid. The rich, odd man oddly resembles actor Jeremy Sisto and Christian Bale, and there's moments where you get a little bit of "American Psycho" vibes in the disturbing portrayal of himself.

    When the secrets are revealed behind what's really happening in this house, the drama unfolds between multiple characters. The film holds your attention pretty decently to its end. I rate this one a 7/10.

    Great movie

    Excellent. Captivating. The lead actress is extraordinarily talented. She was similarly great in the Blood and Water series also filmed in South Africa.

    The movie does contain disturbing images but it didn't give me nightmares.

    Very topical subject and lots of high tech gadgetry.

    Please check out the Netflix series Blood and Water. Khosi Ngema is definitely one of my favorite actresses. Very beautiful. Toughtful and expressive.

    This was filmed in Capetown South Africa. 🇿🇦 Professionally done. Well acted. Good story.

    I would watch anything this actress is a part of...she's THAT good.

    10 stars.

    Tense and entertaining

    If you like the thriller/horror hybrid, this will be right up your alley. Keeps you on edge the entire time! A couple of squatters/phroggers make themselves at home in a mansion, unbeknownst to the owner, until the girl witnesses a crime in the residence, and her presence in the house is detected by the psycho who owns the place. From there it turns into an increasingly more disturbing game of cat and mouse. If you liked 'Don't Breathe' - awesome, AWESOME nail-biter - you will enjoy this one as well. Some disturbing imagery, not suitable for kids, but overall a very entertaining, edge-of-your-seat thriller horror.

    Solid movie

    So this isn't a movie worth a high rating by any means, some of the "rEvIeWs" have it as a 9 or 10 LoL.

    This movie isn't bad at all, it's fairly well done actually with a good plot and the actors and actresses done well, it's entertaining and has a couple of little twists thrown in there that keep everything moving along at a good pace, get some popcorn, relax and just watch it for what it is and you'll find that you will enjoy it. Tubi has done well here (as they have done with many other Tubi Originals) with good visual effects to top it all off this one definitely doesn't disappoint at all.
