Nine people with no apparent connection are drugged, kidnapped, and put in a house with no way out. There are seventy-five cameras and just as many hidden microphones all over the house. It seems that an eccentric lunatic is behind everything and he will offer five million dollars to the person who walks out alive.

Blah. Blah. Blah. That's pretty much the plot. There have been better "group-trapped-in-inescapable-situations-and-have-to-kill-each-other" movies. Cube and Saw II come to mind. What sets this movie apart from those is that the accents are among the WORST I have ever heard. Did you ever want to hear Dennis Hopper use a fake Irish accent? Me either. Speaking of Dennis Hopper, he's totally out of place in this movie. Out of everything they could have gotten him to play, he plays...a priest. Yeah, Dennis Hopper as a priest works about as well as Keanu Reeves as an English Aristocrat. Dennis Hopper seems to be at his best when he's playing a dickhead in some capacity. They should have captialized on that.

Before I go any farther, the nine people that are kidnapped are: a priest; a dancer; a designer; an aspiring rapper; a former tennis pro; a woman on probation; an unsuccessful composer and his wife; and a detective. This could have been GREAT if it was actually a character study. Sadly we get to know the characters for all of ONE SCENE. After that we're supposed to relate to them I guess. Oh well, after that scene they're all disposable anyway.

The acting could have been much better. The fake accents (some were real, but the fake ones were REALLY fake) took away any semblance of believability in the characters, and because there's little plot supposition on the characters, we don't know what they're motives could be for wanting the money. Consistency with the characters and motives would have been greatly appreciated.

It's also pretty boring. Not much happens for the first half of the movie and during the second half, the kills aren't so bad, but without knowing the who/why about the characters they don't really mean anything.

The movie does give us a good amount of blood, however. That seems to be a trick of bad horror movies - don't give them plot or substance, give them blood! This is definitely one cliche I could do without. The movie give us no nudity but some of the chicks have decent bodies. Honestly, the best part of this movie was seeing Kelly Brook's ass shots. There's a good amount of them in this.

I've had this DVR'd since May. I'm upset that it took me this long to see it, but I'm even more upset that the wait was NOT worth it.
