Captive

We've seen this one before, a group of strangers in a locked room with no idea how they got there, why they are there, or how they are connected. Bad acting, bad lighting and awful camera work. They are being infected with a virus and a voice that sounds like an annoying British Stephen Hawking toys with them. I got halfway through and could no longer stand the agony. Do yourself a favor and watch similar but better films like Saw, Cube, Exam, Circle (2015) or really ANYTHING else but this!

This is like a high-school drama class production with 1980's CGI and 1990's costume gore effects. The trailer is more exciting. At least it's a short length so you don't waste too much of your time. 4/10

I watched this with an open mind, being an Saw geek, i kind of knew what to expect in the blurb but thought i would give this a chance. A few problems i found with this film. I never really got to like or love the characters, i do not put that down to really poor acting (it wasn't great to be honest). but considering the goal was to last 24 hours alive, i had no insight as to why they were chosen, they were not likable people. For me its a one watch wonder. It could have been a masterpiece if it was more thought provoking and realistic. But a lot of the time extremely distressing things were happening , yet half the people involved either didn't seem that bothered or just looked lost in the role they should have been portraying. If this is your kind of subgenre of horror give it a watch but don't expect magic. I have seen many low budget films, Colin for example (which was not too good) which is stated to have a budget of just 45 pounds. That jumped hoops over this film. Thankyou for reading
