It would appear that after the Dowdle Bros. made getting stuck in an elevator super creepy, it’ll become the new go-to location for horror/suspense flicks. Take this thriller for example: ELEVATOR, which comes to us from one of the producers of DEAD SNOW and director Stig Svendsen. While there doesn’t appear to be a supernatural element at play here, the flick still deals with terror in close quarters: Trapped in the lift with a group of people sucks already, but it would suck even more if one of them was going to explode.

And that’s the set-up for ELEVATOR, as evidenced by its simple synopsis: Nine people stuck in an elevator – one has a bomb. They’ll do anything to survive.
