My Little Eye

My Little Eye just may be the longest hour and thirty minutes of your life. Or if you're interested in hard-core scary films (ones that serve no entertainment value aside from being scary) then you may just love My Little Eye. If you're someone who subscribes to those online Big Brother feeds and you can spend long periods of time watching people chit chat about nothing AND you like dark, chilling, depressing movies, then you may also love My Little Eye. This movie is basically: Big Brother: The Horror Movie. I remember several years back MTV did that scripted version of the Real World where people were mysteriously murdered. I wish I could find that because I probably would have enjoyed it more than My Little Eye.

Synopsis: Five strangers are cast to spend six months in a house, with their every move broadcast on the web. If no one leaves before six months are up, they'll split a million dollars. It's the newest in reality entertainment, but it may be the last thing those five people ever do. Each of them is being put to the test by outside forces which prey on their worst fears. Is it all a challenge to see if they'll last? Or, is someone playing a deadly game with their lives?

It's MTV's The Real World crossed with the Blair With Project. The five 20-somethings are trapped in this dark, old house out in the middle of nowhere. The house is very dull and dreary looking; It really sets the mood of the movie. There are little web cams all over the house. They talk a lot. There isn't really any action in the movie aside from two people having sex at one point. It gets a little interesting when the cast is thrown some messages from the outside world. One guy gets a letter that a family member died. One girl gets a message from some psycho she has a bad history with. Some of the cast believe these things are just ploys from "The Company" (the people running the operation) to try and tempt them out of the house. They seriously think that the whole world is watching them and that one day they'll all be famous. That is, until, a stranger actually stumbles upon the house. He tells them that he's never heard of their web show despite practically living online himself. The houseguests grow suspicious and somehow crack into some internet connection and try to find their show's website. What they find is not what they expected...

Cast:

Matt (Sean CW Johnson) is the good-looking jock. He's quiet, calm and doesn't attempt to hook up with either of the girls.

Rex (Kris Lemche) is the punk. He let's us know he's only there for the money and will stop at nothing to prevent the others from leaving.

Emma (Laura Regan) is the girl next door. She's sweet and innocent but with a dark past that comes back to haunt her.

Danny (Stephen O'Reilly) is the quiet guy. He has a crush on Emma.

Charlie (Jennifer Sky) is the slutty girl. She loves showing off her body and hopes to be famous.

The Twist: What they find out online is that they are part of a snuff reality show. Rich sickos are paying to watch them get killed. Matt was hired to kill the other 4.

First Victim: Danny. He gets depressed when Emma accuses him of stealing her panties (it really was the stranger Travis who slept over one night). She basically rejects him and he's found the next morning hanging from the ceiling in a noose.

Second Victim: Charlie. Matt suffocates her with a plastic bag putting on a show for the camera.

Third Victim: Rex. Matt chops off his head with an axe.

Fourth Victim: Matt. When "The Company" arrive, they lock Emma in some room. Then the Company dude shoots Matt in the head.
