"This is exactly why you should pay attention in math class, kids.  Seriously though, this is kind of a dream film to work on looking at it from a producer’s standpoint: just a handful of actors, one room that can be backlit with different colors minimal props, minimal costumes, and everything super contained to this box.  I still don’t think I fully understand what it is that makes the cop snap exactly, and some of the acting is a little weird.  I  had expected that a movie that talks so much about a box being so suspenseful would be more suspenseful, but it has its moments.  This would work really well as a Twilight Zone episode for sure.

3 out of 5 on the fright-o-meter for gore and a couple jump scares."
