Safe House 1618 is the latest film about criminals on the run taking refuge in a house that turns out not to be nearly as safe as they thought. From Fight for Your Life and The Desperate Hours to Hideout and Blood Massacre it’s a well-used theme in several genres. Can writer/director Calvin T. Shepherd find a new way to tell it?
The film opens with the murder of a bound man by a masked figure. A cell phone message indicates the victim double-crossed whoever ordered his death. From there we move to three masked figures in the back of a truck. It backs into the driveway of a house with an armed guard who is stupid enough to walk up to the truck and let himself be disarmed.

The next morning, while David arrives on the scene Jake orchestrated to look like a car jacking gone wrong, Cyrus (Jeff Perry) is sitting catatonic in his office with Liv (Kerry Washington) by his side. She swears to him that she will find whoever is responsible for James’ death and...
