watched this movie last night for the third time and it occurred to me that i've never seen it mentioned here. firstly, is it heard of outside the uk? if so, what do people think of it? if you haven't seen it, its a slightly uncomfortable, well made and acted psychological thriller that could make a nice change from watching a pure horror movie. i know this might put people off, but it has a session 9 atmosphere, slightly hitchcockian. :eek:

Really entertaining, tense film, saw it in the theater when it came out. It's known in the states simply because of Danny Boyle and Ewan McGregor.

If you like this you'll love Apartment Zero, which may be the most underrated/underappreciated thriller I've ever scene.

It's respected by some. But yeah, it's hopelessly under appreciated. I'm going to start telling others about it.

As for Apartment Zero:

its one of those movies that almost anyone would enjoy at least. it also has a very young ewan mcgregor and christopher ecclestone. not to mention danny boyle as the director. all should watch!
