That sweaty, close-to-a-nervous breakdown tense feeling of being trapped is nowhere in the film. And where the script goes in its pulpy nasty final twist felt to me like a disturbingly misogynist move.

Rated: 2/5

As the second half of the chamber piece evolves, unfortunately, the main message becomes a little bit muddled, but the visceral gore that ensues brings an entertaining value that more than makes up for its convoluted conclusion.

This elevator horror doesn’t exactly take the genre to new heights, but it succeeds in offering two strong performances worth watching.

A lean, mean and efficient thriller in the vein of Cellular, Phone Booth and Saw.

Film Inquiry

From the moment this movie started until the closing credits Stalker was claustrophobic and intense, in large part to the great performances and excellent script.

Stalker is an ultra-lean thriller that ebbs and flows with palpable tension. It realizes the frightening scenario of being trapped in a confined space with a creepy stranger.

Rated: 3/5

An aspiring actor is trapped in a freight elevator with a mousy man. Two top notch acting performances carry this film to its visceral ending. That ending itself is questionable in its execution and purpose, however. I also didn't get the sense of claustrophobia a film such as this should instill.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Suspenseful, dark & very well acted. Surprisingly twisted! Stuart Brennan was perfect as the shy award cameraman. Sophie Skeleton played her role perfectly! I could go on but I don't want to give it away. Loved the cinematography! Overall very entertaining in a creepy kind of way!👍

The movie was surprisingly good until the end. Hard to pull off when it was just talking back and forth, with little other writing involved. The ending will have you searching "ending explained" commentary and realize everyone is just as confused by it.

‼️SPOILERS AHEAD!! It was a very confusing movie. The actors was amazing aswell as the enviorment and the plot was also very interesting but some parts should have had more backround details or at least a brief explanation. Like the scenes at the end where she turned crazy and started doing wierd things and the scenes just switch between her and the other version of her (?) I think the point of this was to shock the reader and do something unexpected but it turned really confusing instead. It's like you expect something and then it's different from what you expect and it just turns confusing instead of interesting. We get little information on what the characters passt relationship looks like ( especially David ) and that makes it very hard to understand. It would have been better if we got an insight in the passt ( Davids passt ) since it would be easier to understand and read between the lines. Which in this case we just have to assume things and use our imagination since the line is so vauge you can't really even read it. Other then that I think that all the other things are great. The actors did a fantastic job and really played their roles well and also the cinematography really does a great job and creates tension in the movie. It's a great movie the storyline should just have been more clear.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
