The Incite Mill (2010)

The film starts fairly enigmatic: who are these people, why are they there? And then slowly (over the first 20minutes or so) everything is explained and rules are in place. THIS is where it gets REAL interesting! Death, mysteries, twists, turns, torture, fighting, slightly romance, everything happens! Extremely intense! Especially when they go on patrolling while the GUARD is out as there is a risk of being killed and a romantic scene is thrown in and then nearly getting caught. These twists and turns happen all the way up to even the last MINUTE of the film!
I was actually hoping there'd be an intense romantic/sex scene between Yuki and Suwana.
I really did not like that GUARD; pretended to be fair but FUDGED them over o_O xD All the characters are individual and different but are able to relate somehow.
The last 10 minutes of the film is where it really picks up tension and speed but nevertheless, the rest is definitely a "gripping the sheets" and "on the edge of your seat" feelings. Sometimes jumping out of your skin too (I know I did!)
A small (film study) comment on cinematography (camera shots) very nice shots and I loved the angles on the close ups and the colouring in this film was great and the use of music and sound was extremely effective (especially the patrolling part!) so yeah overall EXTREMELY enjoyable, definately watch again and again and VERY tense! =D
Overall: AMAZING!
And after rewatching this for a second time last night, I stand by my original review but add one thing... Why didn't he give the money to the child?!

Just finished watching the psychological horror/thriller movie THE INCITE MILL: 7 DAY DEATH GAME, where 10 unwitting subjects are lured to a remote structure miles away from anywhere, placed in a sealed habitat and are observed by electronic eyes as the party’s mistrust and suspicions go haywire when one of the participants turns up murdered.

The film was interesting enough, but what really made the movie for me was the all star cast that included not only Fujiwara Tatsuya (of the aforementioned Battle Royale fame), Abe Tsuyoshi (Hanadan) and the mighty Kitaoji Kinya, but THREE (yes, count them, THREE) of my favorite actresses: Ayase Haruka, Ishihara Satomi and Hirayama Aya!

Each gal played a certain stereotype: Aya as the giggly kogal Wakana, Haruka as the quiet and introspective Shoko, and Satomi as the scene-stealing morose, dramatic and suicidal Miyu! I have to say that it was their presence that really kept me glued to the computer- Man, I haven’t had a Crush Overdose like this since “Mamiya Brothers” with Kitagawa Keiko and Sawajiri Erika!

Say, it looks like Ishihara Satomi is really getting into this new kind of haunted, morbid character persona like the one I first saw in Tobo Bengoshi, and I have to say it fits her well!!! Very sultry and on her way to becoming a true Femme Fatale!
