Энэ киноны тухай

From the twisted minds behind Saw IV, V and Saw VI, THE COLLECTOR is a real-time game of cat-and-mouse, melding primal horror with a cracking suspense thriller. An ex-con, Arkin (JOSH STEWART) is trying to get his life back on track, and out of desperation decides to rob his new employer's country home, unaware that a second criminal has also targeted the property, and rigged it with a series of deadly traps.  As the seconds tick down to midnight, Arkin becomes a reluctant hero trapped by a masked “Collector” in a maze of lethal invention, while trying to rescue the very family he came to rob.

No pun intended. I rarely post reviews but this movie deserves to be seen. Don't always believe a Rotten Tomatoes score. One for fans of well made, low key horror with great set pieces. This movie is primarily set in one location which makes it all the more remarkable that the director maintains the suspense throughout.

The Wife & I actually caught this at the cinema when it came out, and we both enjoyed it. Very tense & you can tell that the writers of the Saw films did this, due to some of the sickly traps set-up in the house.

I don't normally review films but this one needs a thumbs up. Pleasantly surprised with this film, would watch again. Keep an eye out for the sequel, The Collection, equally as good.
