2022 ·1h 31m · ★ 5.7 (64)

An influential cheerleader finds herself held captive by a masked psychopath with a God complex. She must complete a series of sadistic social media challenges to save her life and the lives of her fellow captives. However, the masked kidnapper has a secret agenda for his most recent victim.

Why it matters

A twisted fusion of social media satire and survival horror that exposes the dark underbelly of influencer culture through brutal, inventive torment.

  • Turns the "challenge" trope into a deadly game, blending digital-age anxieties with classic captivity horror.
  • The masked antagonist channels a God complex reminiscent of ’70s and ’80s slasher villains with a modern tech-obsessed twist.
  • Sharp commentary on performative identity and the cost of online fame, making it resonate beyond its gore.
  • For fans of films like *The Platform* and *Ready or Not* who appreciate horror that bites into cultural critique without losing its edge.
