Would You Rather [Blu-ray]

GREAT PSYCHOLOGICAL HORROR MOVIE IT DELIVERS WHEN YOU THINK IS DOESN'T.

this is a really awesome movie. if you like low budget horror you have to see this!!! SJAMBOK AGAIN!!

You can tell this is a low budget film. But they did an amazing g job with the little that they had. The movie is nail biting exciting. And even tho it's not the must visual violence you've ever seen. They use methods and ideas and you can visualize in your head and it becomes a very effective way to make you cringe. I give this film a 8 outta 10! Hail satan.

For sure falls into the 'B-Movie' category. It was entertaining with a nice twist at the end. If you like disturbing movies, this is for you. Probably won't watch more than once, but not disappointed with the one viewing.

Intended as a brutal, cruel installment to the torture porn subgenre, it felt like the intensity was declawed, domesticated and rendered family-friendly. However, at times the character dynamic in this ridiculous scenario makes the movie at least watchable, although still falling short of recommendable. Iris (Brittany Snow) is a good person with a good heart who finds herself in a difficult situation. Her parents are dead, she has no money and no job, and she is left to care for her terminally ill brother. Philanthropist Shepard Lambrick (Jeffrey Combs) offers Iris an opportunity to change her life in the form of an invitation to a dinner party that offers a solution to all of her foreseeable problems, financial or otherwise. Upon arrival, Iris finds herself among similarly desperate individuals all looking to make some money. Basically, this is Dinner for Schmucks if the schmucks were financially desperate and the hosts wanted to morally bankrupt them one sadistic challenge at a time. The guests include a mix of transients, gamblers, young and old, able and wheelchair-bound, friendly and unfriendly. Completely out of left field, one of them is played by porn star Sasha Grey. But the real wild card in this rated-R truth or dare is going to be the sweet, naive old lady in the wheelchair. What is she going to do to people? What are people going to do to her? It starts out with mean-spirited intentions--masked as helping people--in the form of paying a vegetarian to eat steak and fois gras and coercing an alcoholic to binge drink fine scotch. But they quickly graduate to things like "would you rather electrocute yourself or Iris?" Then lashings, stabbings, drowning and some other seemingly mundane, poorly executed, unshocking punishments. Even things that should have been hard to watch (in the hands of a different director) were presented in subdued, PG-13 form. Really, I could watch this with my grandmother. She's seen Goodfellas and The Godfather, both of which have more scares, shocks and brutality than this. Iris is clearly meant to serve as the audience's moral compass. But I never found myself rooting for her, nor caring about her or any of the other characters...except for maybe the transient, selfish Amy (Sasha Grey), the first one who realized how to get out of this alive. In fact, from the start Amy really embraced the concept and celebrated the challenges as a malevolent force. Fledgling director David Guy Levy likely intended this to be a brutal, cruel installment to the torture porn subgenre. However, I felt that the intensity was declawed. I felt no suspense. But I did enjoy watching the character dynamic as people tried to rationalize their "would you rather" options. A task that, again, Amy really owned. So while I was disappointed by the near gorelessness, watching the "game" still offered sufficient entertainment. A major shock was that the best performance wasn't by horror king Jeffrey Combs or Pitch Perfect (2012) favorite Brittany Snow. The only convincing character was Sasha Grey's coarse portrayal of Amy. But there were no shocks from schlock, gore, moral corruption, torture, cruelty or even the lame attempt a surprise twist ending. Oh, and the old, sweet naïve lady in the wheelchair? Totally under-, or even un-utilized; mishandled by too much restraint while directing a film in which there should be no restraint! What a waste. If you are looking for jaw-drops, you won't find them in Would You Rather. I would only recommend this to someone who watches no fewer than four horror movies per week. Really. Like four. As in, you probably systematically try to watch all horror ever anyway and won't listen to me as I try to warn you away.

Great movie for those individuals who enjoy the torment of greedy people. Lots of up expected twists. Great on blu ray.

Saw previews of this movie at Texas Frightmare Weekend in Dallas, excellent film ,now mow cow tow sow how row vow low bow

A nice little flick with a different approach to horror a little hard to take at times but that's the fun, I guess.
