A group of high school friends who haven’t seen each other in years go camping in the woods. There’s some tension in the group but it’s not clear why. When Cici gets mad at her boyfriend, they joke about how he’d better be careful after what she did in school. It turns out a teacher gave her detention for using her phone in class. So she used his computer to sign up to websites and newsletters which got him arrested and put on a sex offender registry. The weirdest part of this reminiscing none of them are horrified. You’d think being ten yers older they’d feel awful, but they just laugh. Good times.
After some tense moments, everyone heads off to their tents. Later that night they all wake up wearing weird vests with timers on them. Who could have done this? Well if you guessed it was the high school teacher whose life they ruined, you’d be wrong. It’s because their friend Caleb dies at a party and someone thinks one of them killed him.
They get no explanation about the vest, other than the timer shows how much longer they’ll live and only one of them will leave the woods alive. Later they learn that you can steal other peoples time by murdering them or being near them when they die. So the rest of the movie is people either partnering with each other to find a solution, or trying to murder their friends.
The biggest problem is the person who set this up overlooked one thing. Since one person will make it out alive, it could be the person who killed Caleb. If someone has already killed, it might be easier to kill again. Shouldn’t revenge ensure the killer dies, rather than leaving it to chance? Also what if not everyone in the group decided to go camping? Plus for most of the film we are left to wonder if Caleb was really murdered or it was an accident.
Amusing dialogue
This is why I wasn’t allowed to sleep over at Caleb’s house.
