Headgame

This is a common theme. People are drugged and placed in a setting where they are forced to compete for their lives. It is a ten little Indians type of thing. They introduce all the characters at a party, except one who we get to know before the party so it is not too hard to figure out who wins. This one was no better or worse than the bulk of this type of film out there. People take sides and try to kill each other while trying to figure out how to leave. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

I don't think I've ever seen an exposition dump like in this movie. In the first minutes, we litterally have some guy saying to the audience "This is character A, he"s stong. This is character B, she's smart"...etc. Clearly, the most scary thing in this movie was the acting. Beyond atrocious ! This movie looks like a (bad) student project. I couldn't tell you about the plot, as I couldn't give any sh** about it, and I couldn't go past the 1-hour mark. Don't watch.

All the great reviews this film as received on IMDB must have been written by the actors and people involved in the making of the film......that's the only reason i can come up with for them ....terrible film

I bypassed this film, so many times on Amazon Prime because I was afraid it was going to just be mindless, plotless, gorefest shlock like the Saw and to a degree, the Hostel franchises. I've never been so happy to be surprised! Wow, wow, wow! How low can humans go when their lives depend on it? Watch this film and find out. Things aren't always what they seem...and neither are people. The ending of this film is a SERIOUS shocker...but the twist is unbelievable and leaves the motives open to ENDLESS speculation as to why it ended the way it did. Rarely do I give ANY film a 10 rating...but this one deserved it. I HIGHLY recommended this film!!!

Just another "let's get people in a room and let them kill each other" SAW-ripoff movie, without any memorable kills. Cheap effects (Cameras in their heads? Really? And I saw that fake machete chop you did there), large plot holes (Where did the scars go? 6 hrs wandering around palates without anything happening?), bad dialog. Painful to watch. Without the fake reviews, probably gets a 2 or 3, but gave it a one just to even this crap out.

Headgame is one of those horror movies that falls into the sub genre I adore. Where you have a series of people who wake up and are forced to play a deadly game (Such as SAW, Cube, Circle and The Human Race) Upon realising that's what this is I became rather excited. It tells the story of a group who wake up with camera's attached their foreheads. If they tamper with it they will get shocked, if they remove it the vial of acid set within will kill them. They are told that only one can survive and that the exit will not open until there is only one survivor. So you know the drill, all hell breaks loose. Trouble is I think the "Hell" occurs too fast and it's all rather uninventive. Then we have the finale which is multi-tiered and it's a real mixed bag. You see I'm not sure if I like it, I think that because of the concept (Which is actually quite good) this really needs to become a franchise. The likelihood of a Headgame 2 is pretty damn remote and that's a shame as this being a single standalone movie it simply isn't meeting its potential. Headgame is a watchable effort for fans of the subgenre but is just above average compared to others. The Good: Very clever twists Great concept The Bad: Don't know how I feel about the ending Distinctly average for the most part Things I Learnt From This Movie: Having a lense attached to your head comple with vial of acid will leave no scarring or marks of any sort

Great acting and even better directing for this film, really draws you in and you never know what to expect. I enjoyed the depth of the story in this horror film that you don't see too often in this genre.
