An Extended Twilight Zone Episode

If you're a fan of indie flicks and the Twilight Zone, this is the movie for you! Great one location mystery/thriller/scifi piece that will keep you guessing. Great writing and great production value from an indie gem. If you need big names and superfluous CGI, go watch a Marvel film, but if you love good story and quality indie films, Kultur Shock! is for you!

A lot of tension in this film.

The viewer and the cast are disoriented for much of this film. The story reminds me a bit of the Twilight Zone episode 15 of season 2 called "Invaders". In fact it is a bit like Invaders mixed with Saw. The actors are great and bring depth to their characters even though the perform in a space as small as a one car garage. You can't wait to get to the end.

Very solid indie film

What a terrific delight. A friend recommended this gem of a film to me. I'm not a big sci-fi sort of guy so I had some hesitation. I quickly got into it. I felt this film was timely given the world's current state of affairs. My wife had to point out to me this was shot in one location. This film was so good I hadn't noticed. The acting was top notch coupled with a solid story. I most certainly give this film two thumbs up!

Claustrophobic

Trapped in a room, at first it seems like Saw, but the violence is removed and replaced with a deeper psychological violence. The acting is descent, camera work is spot on, my major complaint would be the weak sound which is almost indescribable at times.

Extremely suspenseful with a CRAZY twist at the end!

What an intense film! There were surprises and twists every ten minutes or so. It really kept you engaged and wondering what was going to happen next. It's the SAW of political satire. My favorite part was the game of chess. "Checkmate". LOL!

Great job by Eric Chapman and his team in creating a claustrophobic space that had many options and scenarios for danger. Extremely hard to pull that off and make it believable, so kudos to them! This was a wonderfully suspenseful and gritty film with an ending you won't see coming. Check it out!
