This one seems to get pretty mixed reviews. People either love it or hate it. I think a lot of it has to do with your personal tolerance for low budget movies...and when I say low budget I mean like...zero budget.
A group of strangers are assembled and offered the chance to live out their wildest dreams. They will be locked inside a large house together for several days and a microchip will be placed in the back of their necks. The walls of the house have circuitry and computer crap in them that will pick up their thoughts via the chip and reproduce it in a physical form. In other words, whatever they can dream up will become reality. The chip will only work within the confines of their own room though. If they go along with the experiment they will be given one hundred thousand pounds ( I forgot to mention that this movie is British.) If they don't go along with it...well, who in their right mind wouldn't?
The people were chosen specifically because they are very normal and average. One guy immediately starts trying to fuck himself to death with dreamed up centerfold models. One lady creates a supercomputer and sets to work solving all the world's problems. Some of the others use it to get a little closure and say goodbye to a lost loved one. You get the idea. The only snag is that one of the guys isn't who they think he is. In fact, he is bugshit crazy. It isn't long before he cuts the power to the other rooms and removes all the limitations of his own chip and creates an army of zombies and just generally fucked up creatures to play cat and mouse with the other houseguests.
I really liked this one. It is godawfully cheesy and features some of the worst blue screen and CGI effects I've ever seen. The thing is that it actually sort of works in its favor somehow. It is just a really fun movie. I think most people who are bothering to read this will probably enjoy it. Also, I really liked the lady who played Della. She was purty. |
