The Movie: Countdown
The Director: Justin Dec
The Cast: Elizabeth Lail, Jordan Calloway, Talitha Eliana Bateman, Peter Facinelli, Tichina Arnold, Matt Letscher, P.J. Byrne
The Story: When a nurse downloads an app that claims to predict the moment a person will die, it tells her she only has three days to live. With the clock ticking and a figure haunting her, she must find a way to save her life before time runs out.
The Review:
This is about as basic and paint by numbers of a horror movie as you will find although the end result is still pretty entertaining with some surprisingly legit scares. The story is sort of a modern technology twist on the Final Destination franchise and the idea actually isn't half bad and is an easy topic to plug into the horror movie formula. Lead actress Elizabeth Lail, mostly known for her work on TV shows, showed an ability to carry a feature film and I hope to see more of her in the future, especially since the ending of this movie sets things up for the inevitable future installments.
