Thrown naked into a desolate room with thirteen strangers, Tonya discovers that she is the final contestant in a deadly game. Restrained by lethal electronic collars, the players must utilize hints and tools from a box marked "pieces" to find both an exit and the reason for their abduction. One by one the players are eliminated as their "curfew" begins and the lights go out. With each dead body comes another clue, which they use to discover that one of them is the killer. The question is ... which one?
Practical Effects
Those collars actually look like they hurt, so points for commitment.
Writing
The 'pieces' box concept—stupid name, decent hook.
Director
John Suits
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Directors Suits and Cowan shot this in 2007 for roughly $25,000, explaining why the 'desolate room' looks like someone's unfinished basement.
This rode the 2000s torture porn wave post-Saw but pre-Escape Room, when 'people trapped playing a game' was peak edgy—notably casting actual disabled actor Kim Estes as Ten rather than using disability as a twist.
