UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Theo Robertson Jack Samms comes home after a routine day and finds an intruder in his house who calls himself " Trick " who shows him an event on a laptop - Jack's wife and her lover are trapped , entombed in a coffin and Trick tells Jack that there is only enough air to last another 75 minutesThere's a good film in here somewhere but is destroyed by its own derivative nature for much of the running time . It's a psychological thriller rather than an out and out horror movie but you're constantly reminded of other better films . . Reading the premise I thought I'd be watching something along the lines of the ultra low budget minimalist cult classic BURIED which came out round about the same time but unlike that film COFFIN doesn't have faith in its premise and the vast majority of the action takes place above ground . Likewise the mind games Trick plays on Jack is similar to the SAW movies and DIRTY HARRY . One noticeable thing about the two victims trapped in the coffin is that the mis-en-scene is wrong . Despite there being water leaking in to the coffin there is also sunlight visible , a fact noticed by Jack when he looks on the laptop and this foreshadows the ending which thankfully isn't leftfield and if it had a better director and production values would have made a nifty mainstream thriller
kellyolsen-180-97303 Nice little thriller with a great twist that you are not expecting. Well done for a small, low budget film.You might get a little lost in the plot over one particular point but that happens in all kinds of thrillers or mysteries. But it is nothing to make the experience unfulfilling. Patrick Barnitt does a great job in his first starring role and has a great future ahead of him. Sorbo is convincing when he is on screen as is most of the cast. Good production value considering how little this film was made for.Barnitt and Alonzo have to carry the story along and they do so with skill. Really impressed with Barnitt's performance.
f-sweeney really liked this film, a small budget does not always mean tacky straight to video slasher type stuff. i didn't guess the plot, which made it more enjoyable. The actors kept the plot moving, with no filler scenes and Bruce Davidson always adds class to support roles.*****spoiler spoiler One question and plot hole when Jack kicks Trick out of the car, trick makes a call and says 'he (jack) has taken the money'. i thought for a minute trick took it when he hit the banker, but he didn't have the money. So... how did he manage to give it to rona and sean ?. maybe the small budget didn't allow for a re shoot - but never mind, hopefully the makers will get enough receipts for a sequel
suissenavy Yeah this one is a great watch, even though the cast are quite forgettable minus the veteran detective. His one liners stand up a few times. But this is a thriller with a great twist, and there is a sequel screaming to be made. It will entertain you, I figured out what was really happening quite early, but it didn't spoil the ending, which was great. This film is certainly not produced so well, but the story carries it to the end and makes it worth the investing the run time. Can't wait for part 2, hope it out does the first, and who knows how that will end. There are flashback sequences to underline the events, and it seems that these are the weakest part, they seemed a little cardboard. Once again however, the writer deserves maximum credit for this yarn of adultery, money and deceit. Well down.
