| Summary: | Viewing an apartment normally doesn't turn into a life-or-death situation, but this particular open house becomes just that. A failed bank robber bursts in and takes everyone in the apartment hostage. As police surround the premises and television channels broadcast the hostage situation live, the eight strangers begin opening up to one another. Before long, the robber must decide which is the more terrifying prospect, going out to face the police, or staying in the apartment with this group of impossible people. |
