User Reviews

An great film about deadly chaos on a reality show set

I can't wait to see this movie out in theaters..I absolutely loved it. Definitely, definitely worth the watch. It has a great script and excellent filming... I'd never heard of Jeff Fisher before but when I found out he worked on shows like The Simple Life and The RW/RR Challenge I was blown away. I guess it makes sense that the movie is about a reality show, but it works..it really really works. I can't wait to see more from him in the mainstream. His work really worth taking notice of. The movie provided with laughs without the mindless humor "comedies" ALL contain nowadays, and chills without overdoing it like most horror movies usually do. The concept is so creative, and I think they satirize the reality show business perfectly. I've said it about 3 times already, but I mean it..I really loved this movie and I'm hoping you all will take the chance and check it out.
