Would You Rather (2012)



Released February 8, 2013 in the US.
Filmed entirely in California.
The story: Iris is a young woman living with and caring for her younger brother who is extremely sick.
She is very worried about him and doesn't know how she will be able to continue to care for him financially.
Iris gets an invitation to a dinner party...but it's not just any kind of dinner party.
The point of the dinner party is said to be a chance at winning money, from a powerful and very wealthy doctor,  just by attending.
Iris is of course apprehensive about the party.
It seems just too good to be true.
But considering others will be attending as well, Iris decides to go to the party.
Unfortunately, shortly after sitting down to dinner, everyone at the party realizes this isn't what it seemed.
The guests are informed that to be eligible to win the prize money, they are expected to go through with torturing each other in some way shape, or form, by request of the man who had invited them to the party.
Just by accepting the invitation and now hearing how the evening will go, no one is able to refrain from participating, no matter how much they resist.
