Vile (2011)

"Vile" is another film where a group of people are forced to accomplish a gruesome goal within a strict time period or be killed by their captors, and yet again this concept feels forced and hokey because it doesn't have the same gravitas that "Saw" had; this film is more like "Kill Theory" than "Hunger" but has some how managed to achieve the ability of being harder to believe than even those two movies. What saves this movie from it's unbelievable premise is the acting and the very satisfying epilogue of the film. What almost kills this movie right off the bat is the incredibly slow and meandering beginning and the non-stop torture-porn once it begins. This is not a film I would recommend for entertainment purposes unless you enjoy scenes of innocent strangers torturing each other (I don't).

Taylor is on a camping trip with her boyfriend and another couple. She's trying to tell him that she's pregnant but never finds the right moment. On the way back home, they pick up a woman who says that she ran out of gas. They take her to her car, which is in the direction they want to go, and after she gets out she comes back and gasses the the main characters. The four wake up in a strange house locked in with six others. The group watches a video of an older woman explaining that they must fill up a container connected to their brains with the chemicals that are produced when someone is experiencing extreme pain, and that they only have 22 hours to complete their task. The group is civil (for the most part) and try to accomplish the task so they can go home. But things don't go the way they should and someone knows more than they are sharing with the others....
