It’s a tale as old as time, desperate people find an obscure thing and try to sell it or mess with it. That’s the story behind Netflix’s Choose or Die. Seriously, a broke student trying to get by finds a game from the 80’s (you know, the Stone Age) and tries to claim the $100,000 that no one has ever been able to win. That’s not suspicious at all.
What Kayla (Iola Evans) doesn’t realize is that she has started a series of dangerous events that can’t be stopped. They can only be lived through. And as Choose or Die as a game progresses, the true horror of this all reveals itself and Kayla has to decide whether she’s going to allow this dangerous twist of a game to destroy her or die in an undoubtedly gruesome way.
From the looks of the trailer, which includes Sex Education‘s Asa Butterfield as Isaac, Kayla is going to fight tooth and nail to survive. And the methods that this game chooses to torture you or those around you, seem like a trickster’s playground. Because everything has a catch, even when you’re trying to do the right thing and save yourself or those that you care about.
