A group of tenants at the top floor of a ghetto high-rise are terrorized by a sniper. Like a robot Marky Wahlberg-caliber sniper who shoots bullets so fast as to not account for wind speed and distance. Sorry, i didn't like this much. I guess it wasn't terrible but I don't remember much good about it. Oh, right. At one point they make it to the ground floor and to the back door that's not coered by the sniper, but they can't exit because the sniper has placed a garbage bin - like those massive ones behind restaurants - at the door. So they head back up and more people die and later on they use a sledgehammer to... do something else. It was one of those instances where I spent the whole time pissed at the movie because they could easily use the sledgehammer to break a hole in the wall NEXT to the back door. I mean even if it's straight cinder block or concrete or something.. wouldn't you whack at it with your sledgehammer for a few hours before gambling on your life by going out on the roof? gah.

Anyway, this was one of the few that really didn't do much for me at all during the fest, sorry to say. I still love Severance.
