Who did you guess the killer was going in?


First, bravo. I was skeptical going in due to all of the mixed reviews on this film, but I genuinely enjoyed watching it. Sure, it wasn't the best low-budget movie I've ever seen, but it was good. Especially since it only had a ~$500,000 budget, although I'm sure this was partly due to the fact that almost the whole movie was filmed in one small, closed in space. :p

Second, after reading the summary, I decided to try to guess who had the bomb before it was revealed in the movie. I initially thought it was the prego girl. It was fairly obvious that she loved the character who got her pregnant and kept dropping hints that there was something between them that was more than just coworkers. I thought she also seemed a bit unstable mentally or like something wasn't exactly right upstairs. My prediction was that she had the bomb somewhere on her (no idea where that it wouldn't have been seen) and planned to kill her lover and his fiance at the party out of jealous and a broken heart. But I guess then they wouldn't have been able to tie in the whole "you are a monster for screwing over all those innocent people" speech that everyone gave Henry Barton.

My first thought was it was the woman who had the bomb. Her movements and pill taking made it seem as though she had the bomb internally (turned out to be true) but I thought it was WAY too obvious so I started thinking it was the pregnant girl pretending to be pregnant and her baby bump being the bomb. I guess they skipped subtle and went straight for the in your face, instead of having a twist.

older woman right at the start...she was the only one who was not asked for her ID...so no invite for her.

BTW, this has to be one of the worst movies ever in terms of directing and writing and if you look at the writer's and director's credits, it basically confirms they were newbs

At first I thought it was either of the younger women and them I went through everyone in my head and arrived at the middle aged lady last and then realized it was her lol

As soon as they showed her taking the pill in her room I figured it was her, I assumed the pill was something to calm her nerves because being a suicide bomber is pretty stressful.

Im watching this now for 23 minutes and my Guess its the older woman. Something to do with her dead husband I suppose....and Barton has something to do with his dead....

I saw Devil before seeing this movie so I basically knew it was the old woman the 1st time they showed her on screen. If not for that the pill popping and drinking was a dead give away. As was knowing the father of the baby since they weren't very subtle with that either.
