We begin with a snow covered cabin in the woods where we find a masked guy with a big knife pounding on his chest motivating to do bad things. We hear screaming in the background begging for help! Credits Roll.. +1 Star I really liked the opening to set the mood. Next a job interview.. An aspiring writer? Looking for a job as a writer's assistant. I like the interview. Later....this interviewee she's on some talk show talking about her book. Apparently this is some dream or vision of her aspirations. She got the job! She's an assistant. When she arrives at her job, apparently a live in job, dude takes her phone away. 'No Distractions!' he says. Well he didn't take away the record player in her cabin? That seems a distraction!!! Ruh Roh theres a locked door she finds in her big cabin. She's immediately afraid of it. Probably for good reason!!!! She meets CALEB...her name is Avery. Introductions are made. Caleb introduces her to a 'game'. A controlled experiment in FEAR. Haha. And she is going to be the subject of this GAME. So the experiment in fear begins. Water turning on in her cabin. Sounds from under the bed... oh no its dreams! Already?? Waking to creaking from the floor inside her cabin.... Haha trapped in some kind of wrapping she really starts to freak out. She can hear Caleb typing. Oh my she's been trapped in that cocoon thing and having weird visions. Caleb has a woman chained up in a room and pretends he can't see her when Avery is freaking out about her. Avery runs and tries to break out of the cabin but the windows are break proof. Caleb has her locked up real good!!!! Caleb parades Allison as an actress to try to get Avery to cooperate. Avery doesn't fall for it. And Caleb gets upset. Avery comes forward knife in hand to confront Caleb while he is typing. Caleb reads a portion of what he has written to her. Caleb allows Avery to chain him up. Caleb says 'The Sooner We Finish The book, the sooner you can go home.' +1 Star here this is actually quite fun. So Avery has a knife, in the dark the masked man we saw in the beginning approaches her. Avery stabbed the hell out of him. Haha. I guess he is dead. Avery and Caleb have a long discussion, where Caleb tells Avery how he predicted her every move. Avery attacks Caleb and captures him. Caleb's friend comes to the scene and Avery apparently kills her also with a knife. I wonder if Caleb saw this coming????!!!!!! Avery starts going through all of Caleb's stuff. His safe. His photos. LOL Caleb confesses to Avery that he's really not Caleb Conrad, and that he's an actor. This is funny stuff. That this has all been a setup from the beginning. Haha apparently he's lying! Nice Try tho!!! Really nice one!!! Avery has Caleb Conrad chained up!!!! Caleb is finally acting like he's in real danger now. He's missing fingers. He finds his dead masked friend in the bed. Caleb and Avery have fight! Is this it??? So at the end, Avery is still alive. Cracks a horrible joke in an interview and the interviewer / talk show host cracks up laughing and so does the 'audience' / laugh track. Whoa I was stymied by how lame that joke was with the canned laughter and actually..... -1 Star for the lame ending. Final. 6/10 But definitely not a movie for everyone. Haha.

I hate how a lot of great horror movies get bad ratings that deserve good ratings. I love the unexpected twist this movie had. They could have added more gore but I am a big gore fan. But overall I thought this movie was pretty great 👍

I liked the movie. But still confused on what was real and or not. Was he the real writer or the actor like he said. Were they really trying to kill her? Any thoughts on this. ?

Tbh, the ending was pretty predictable. The acting was overall "OK" The story was way too illogical though, nobody descends into madness that quickly. Nobody becomes a killer like that. Today you're a kind woman, literally tomorrow you decide that you wanna kill 3 people and you not only cover it up, but also write a book and profit from it. JOKE. Now at least I know not to always trust the supposed experts on rottentomato LOL

Great acting, great story, great turn around, I love movies that look predictable and suddenly everything changes, (spoilers) the bad guy was not so bad and the victim goes psycho, totally unexpected, that's the best thing about this movie, the blood bath surprise factor, I will never trust sweet girls anymore. I would give it 11 stars if I could.

This film is bad. I don't write reviews I just rate titles for fun as a movie goer. But seeing the positive reviews and this weird cult like following for this film, I have to do people justice and warn you. If you want to waste an hour and 36 minutes that's fine but just go in with a warning. Hence why did this movie not go to Theaters if it was so good? Why is it FREE on prime of its such a master piece as all these comments claim? The writing: While starting off strong and interesting about 35 minutes in it falls flat and gets old fast. Speaking in riddles and vague language to slow comes off as choppy and almost amateur style writing. The lead actress and actor have zero chemistry when delivering dialogue to each other. It comes off as forced. The twist: Very easy to spot which is not a bad thing, the problem is all the plot holes that follow said twist.I wont spoil it at all, I will just say that it is filled with plot holes and is not believable. The cinematography: Very well done, the shots mainly going from pedestal shots to over the shoulder shots worked very well. The tracking shots in particular were very well executed and hard to pull off with such a small set. Sadly that can't make up for poor writing and acting. This movie comes off as a Steven King wannabe but delivers as much as tower of darkness.

Had no idea where this film was going, and i was hooked. Until it got past the midway point and it sort of lost track. The ending was trash which is why i give it 5 stars Not a terrible film

I progressively lost interest till the point I just didn't want to watch after 2/3rds of it. Could have been an exceptional movie as the premise was good and the setup was reasonable. But it's paced poorly, it rushed the setup, then it's just on snooze control while nothing of significance happens. I'd much much much much much rather watch any group of kids in a cabin in the woods film that this. Like I said good fresh premise but just wasted on this film.

The beginning was great the middle mediocre and the end sub par. at some points it was confusing but with good acting and a few crazy scenes it is deff middle of the road watchable and some may even really like it 5.3
