Revision as of 03:46, 22 December 2011

Elevator is an upcoming 2012 American thriller film directed by Stig Svendsen^[1]. It follows the struggles and conflicts of nine strangers trapped in a Wall Street elevator. One of the group has a bomb, with racism, greed and revenge playing key elements as they all fight to survive.^[2]

Synopsis

9 people stuck on an elevator one has a ticking bomb - the other 8 will do absolutely anything to survive. The bomb cannot be defused. There is no escape and no promise of rescue. The unthinkable becomes the only reasonable solution. In a suspense thriller, both classic and contemporary, the passengers on Elevator are squeezed so tightly by fear and panic, the only possible result is horror. With minutes to live, there is no time for civilized morals. Nine sophisticated, Wall Street party-goers reveal the real people behind the facade. Crafted by the award-winning team of Norwegian director, Stig Svendsen and writer-producer Marc Rosenberg, they create a story as chilling as Hitchcocks Psycho and as demented as Polanskis The Tenant. An ensemble cast starring (Christopher Backus, Anita Briem, John Getz, Shirley Knight, Amanda and Rachel Pace, Devin Ratray, Tehmina Sunny, Joey Slotnick and Waleed Zuaiter) creates a pressure cooker drama unlike any other Hollywood Movie.

Elevator, not just another Hollywood movie.
