MOVIES MITCH CAN'T WAIT TO MISS
P2
Director: Franck Khalfoun
Starring: Wes Bentley, Rachel Nichols
November 9th


A thriller named after the parking garage button in an elevator, released by a studio of the same name. Thrilling. We didn't think it could get any better than the critically applauded Ghost Rider or the brilliantly conceived stoner comedy Weirdsville, but the professionals have proven us wrong by topping off Wes Bentley's (emo-archetype Ricky Fitts) most successful year to date with this guaranteed sleeper—scratch that—knocked unconscious hit. It's a brilliantly original concept, all the same: a girl is trapped in a building with a psychopath. Also note, two of the supporting characters' names are "Elevator Gal" and "Man in Elevator."

In support, we need to acknowledge modern horror maestro, Alexandre Aja, is putting his virgin production credit on this film. Since his discovery, he hasn't misled us, but it seems he's decided that this reign has lasted long enough.
