Storyline

A first-time feature-film director (who's also the writer and producer) is casting the lead actress. We meet him talking to his wife about the picture and the process. We meet the actress, Sandy, negotiating with her roommate and talking by phone to her mother. Then, we watch Sandy audition for the director at the call-back session; also attending are the casting director and the production company's sycophants. The wrinkle is that the director is a homicidal misogynist, his wife is tied up and hanging from the ceiling, and Sandy has something in her purse that bodes a rocky future.

Don't need to see it

I may not have seen the actual film, but from the title alone I feel like I have. 10/10 from me, would recommend others watching the film so that they can tell me if the film is as good as the title, not that it matters. Up there with skyscraper, The Meg and Pocahontas.
