This movie is based on a short story which was also the inspiration for a twilight zone episode. Anyways, the premise is that a couple in financial trouble gets a box with a red button in it. If they press the button they get a million dollars. The catch? Someone who they don't know will die if they press the button. A slow paced movie which goes really weird places, then takes a turn for the weird and becomes really unnerving.

Yeah, same here. Actually I saw it only a couple months ago after browsing the internet for some sci-fi-ish films I hadn't seen yet. For some reason this never showed up on my radar when it was released which is a shame, would've loved this on the big screen. and oh boy that facial disfigurement harry fontana fucked around with this message at 08:02 on Aug 3, 2011 |

Sauce Mop posted:Watch this parody called "The Button", it's especially hilarious just after seeing the movie. Hahaha, nice! Edit: I just watched the trailer for this on youtube which is really horrible: 1. gives too much away 2. makes it seem like some kind of action movie 3. uses something sounding suspiciously like the "saw" theme So these are probably the reasons I didn't watch it in a theatre back in 2009. Really why don't they market films for what they are? People who would've loved this don't go to see it and people who came with expectations set by that trailer would've been disappointed. Hollywood, I guess. BTW it's the same director who made Donnie Darko. It also has some morons going on in the youtube comments how they have read all the "books" before seeing the movie, and they changed way too much from the "books" while it is based on a loving short story.
