Open Grave

A man wakes up with no memory of who he is, lying in a pit filled with corpses. He is pulled out by a woman who leads him to a house in the woods where several other survivors have likewise lost all recollection of how they got there or what happened. None of them knows whether they already knew one another. As they search for answers and try to work out who is responsible for the bodies, it becomes clear that they are being watched, and the possibility that the killer is among them cannot be dismissed.

Open Grave was directed by Gonzalo López-Gallego, his third feature after The King of the Hill (2008) and Apollo 18 (2011), and later followed by The Hollow Point, Backdraft 2, American Star and La sombra del tiburón. The screenplay is by Eddie Borey and Chris Borey, and the cast is led by Sharlto Copley as John, alongside Joseph Morgan, Thomas Kretschmann, Erin Richards, Josie Ho and Max Wrottesley. The production was an international one, involving Hungary, Hong Kong, Norway and the United States.

The film has a mixed reception. On IMDb it holds a rating of 6.1 out of 10 from roughly 33,000 votes, and on TMDB it sits at 6 out of 10 from a much smaller base of around 800 votes. A critics' score of 4 out of 10 from 16 reviews is noticeably lower than those audience figures, suggesting that general viewers responded to the premise more warmly than reviewers did.
