A man awakes-- without memory -- in a pit full of bodies and must figure out if the people who rescued him are the killers, or if he is the murderer.

The road to the finale is littered with dead bodies and red herrings, but Open Grave is more notable for its laid-back approach to storytelling than for its plot twists.

Where the story leads is so disappointing-and hackneyed-it makes the entire journey feel like an enormous waste of time.

2.5/10

The film's aura of mystery only works in the first 20 minutes or so, when it seems effortless; after that it feels like it's working very hard to keep the truth obscured, and in so doing just becomes a colorless slog.

3/4

Conventional performances cannot inhibit this twisted, creative horror feature about a houseful of guests with no memories of their past.

1/5

A sterile scenario that takes entirely too much time to bring us to an ending that assumes we'll find it as nifty as it thinks itself to be.

As a demonstration of a director's improvement? Check this one out. As a showcase of the genre or this type of plot device? There are better choices.

A slogfest with crummy direction, unnecessary noises, and nothing new to add to the genre. Still, I'll watch anything with Copley in it, but the movie left him little to do.

A historia eh atÃ© interessante, mas o roteiro eh meio fraco.

A well made omega man, Sharlto Copley is great but the problem is in a world dominated by walking dead, there is not a shred of originality and no surprises if you have seen the trailer.

What would have made a pretty great short is drawn out into a circuitous thriller that often fumbles it's many plot twists.

I did not recognize one actor/actress which made it easier to believe. From start to finish, you don't know what's going to happen next. Usually I can tell in the first 10 minutes; who/what/where/why but not in this movie.
