The concept of this movie is terrifying. Definitely a movie I'd be interested in seeing in a theater, pending reviews.

I don't really understand the concept. What's with the masks?

For 12 hours there are no laws, anything is legal. My guess with the masks is that they don't want people knowing who they are so they cant go after them the next day? Theres probably more to it, but that seems logical to me lol

Don't pay to see it. I just saw it. If I had to do it over again I'd wait until a good copy is online or you want to order it OnDemand.

It didn't appear to have any gratuitous nudity in it. No such thing as a horror flick without a few titty scenes.

it honestly could/should have been a PG-13 flick. They could have cut a few words here and there (that added nothing to the dialogue) and cut the death scenes (that were meh anyway).

It appeals to a more nieve audience anyway, I don't know why they went out of their way to make it an R title when it was obvious it should have been PG-13.

From the trailer, I really like the concept. It seems the screwed it up by just making it another home invasion/defend your home movie. If they would have kept the concept and applied it nationwide, I would be very interested.

I get the impression that they didn't have a huge budget and a cool concept like this would obviously require a larger budget

naive white girl lets strange black man into her home....bad things happen

it's almost as if the movie were written by someone in the porn industry

Same I thought the concept of chaos for a day would be interesting ( even though logically no crimes being committed except one day is completely implausible). But yeah I was hoping for a wide view of the chaos instead of a panic room 2.0

Kinda surprised people are saying they want to see it. Is it just me, or does it seem like a typical POS scary movie/thriller?

I mean seriously, when's the last time a good, or even decent, scary/intense movie was made? The Ring? And it wasn't even that good.

This genre of movies is just terrible. Would be really interesting to see more like this if they ever get producers, directors, and actors that are worth anything.

Saw it last night. The concept is awesome and it had the potential to be made into a pretty sick movie. That being said, it sucked. I was not impressed at all and would not recommend anyone waste their money on it. I almost walked out.

Production for the sequel has already been approved. Hopefully they can dig deeper into the concept on the sequel.

Lol! Takes something really horrible for me to walk out of it. I came close with Mars Attacks but sat through it.

Stupid idea for a film. Also, stupid idea to release a film that promotes murdering citizens while murder rates and senseless gun crimes are off the chain.

Apparently the movie only had a budget of $3,000,000 and it grossed over $36,000,000 domestic this weekend. It's safe to say they may be trying to do a franchise with this setup.
