Looking for a movie...


I'm looking for a movie that I can't find despite all my efforts. The movie is about strangers who appear in an unknown place and have to run.

edited: not needed anymore.

It was a not-too-interesting movie, but I'm watching these unusual thrillers again.

The Host (2013)?

No, that's not the one.

I've been disappointed with recent movies lately, so I've been rewatching some older movies that I've always enjoyed. I think I've seen all of them except for this one, which seems to have disappeared into thin air. I've searched for it everywhere, but I can't find it. It must be a forgotten movie. It wasn't very good, but it was kind of a rare movie with unexpected surprises.

Movies past 2010 have just been mostly awful.

It's probably a 6 on IMDb, not a big deal. Just annoyed I can't find it xD

Sounds like every horror movie made

lol yes, it shares some similarities to The Circle (2015). It's hard to explain without giving away huge spoilers.

There's a board for movie searches and the like.

Just saying. 👼​

Oh, thank you, I didn't know.

Do you generally know the decade?

reply

pretty sure it was released after 2010.

Maze runner?

That's a good try, but not the one I'm looking for. It's a way less known movie. I spent some time today combing through YouTube for a single scene to jog my memory, but came up empty-handed.

Do you have a movie-related YouTube channel and podcast by any chance?

reply

That's a great idea! Maybe someday... like never.

Well, I found the movie on a lost list on IMDb.

The movie is called...... The Human Race.

How is it possible that no search has given me the correct result since the plot is literally spelled out in the title?
I watched it and it's worse than I remembered.

As a curious fact, I'm looking at the rating graphs of this and two similar movies: The Circle and The Exam.
Both movies show a graph where there is a very high concentration of votes around their score while the remaining scores are very low
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3118452/ratings/?ref_=tt_ov_rt
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1258197/ratings/?ref_=tt_ov_rt
In both cases the graphs are very similar and it seems most movies have this shape.

But when I check at The Human Race it has received peaks all over the place lol

It seems it's unclassifiable XD at least I can finally rest easy knowing that I've seen it.
