Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
A waste of 90 minutes of my life
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
While traveling in Czech Republic, the American friends Brad (Boyan Vukelic), Christina (Fiona Glascott), T.K. (Derek Hamilton) and Kelly (Amy Perfect) find a map with the route to an ancient castle and they decide to visit the place. They force the entrance in the castle and after a while, they realize that they are trapped in the spot, without any exit and suffering painful hallucinations. When they meet the weird deranged Travis (John Tench), the stranger explains that they are in hell, and one of them must stay behind to permit the rest of the group to escape. While they decide who will be the chosen one, the true nature of each one of them is revealed."Within" uses the basic concept of "Cube", showing a group of people unsuccessfully trying to find an unattainable exit, combined with the behavior of persons under extreme stress, disclosing their true nature. The result is a good low budget movie, with a young cast having good performances. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "O Escolhido" ("The Chosen")
