All best friends Diane (Amanda Viola), Rudy (Tim Robinson), Maddie
(Danielle Powell), Keith (David Gorena), Alan (Justin Herman) and Sarah
(Makenna Timm) want is to spend a chilled evening ... but then all of a
sudden Sarah's gone, and it might have to do with a call she received from
a blocked number - and soon enough all the others find out they have
received similar calls from a blocked number as well. Then Keith, Sarah's
boyfriend, receives a call and has to listen to her being brutally
tortured - and panicking, he dashes off to save her ... but is abducted
instead. Things really get out of hands though when Rudy brings a gun to
the table for protection, a sex video showing Diane with the possible
abductor turns up, and Alan confesses he has cowardly collaborated with
the guy, a snuff film producer who threatened for Alan to be next
otherwise - and this all of course is more than enough to have everybody
at everybody else's throat ...
A clever little thriller with more twists and turns than
you'll even manage to point out in just one viewing, this one nevertheless
draws you in as it's tightly paced, is full of suspense, and features
quite a few interesting plot ideas. Very solid genre entertainment
indeed!
