The Belko Experiment...

Adria Arjona plays Leandra Flores in THE BELKO EXPERIMENT.

I watched the horror flick that was written by James Gunn (of Guardians of the Galaxy fame) at the theater today, and just have a few quick observations about it: 1.) Mike Milch (played by The Newsroom's John Gallagher Jr.) is totally badass... 2.) And so is Leandra Flores (played by Emerald City's Adria Arjona). *Thinks about the film's climax* Leandra, nooooo! 3.) Who the hell would take a job that requires having a mysterious chip placed inside the back of their head? A red flag right there, folks. 4.) The Belko Experiment is this decade's Saw movie—though I never watched any of the Saw flicks (nor do I intend to), and 5.) Orion Pictures still exists?

80 employees are forced to take part in a sadistic experiment inside a Colombian high-rise office building in THE BELKO EXPERIMENT.

So what's my verdict on The Belko Experiment, you ask? Well... It's blood-churning and it's bloody awesome! I can't wait for the sequel— You know that the final shot in this film is hinting at one. (Like The Purge movies, Belko's sequel can obviously focus on other folks who survived this hideous, violent experiment.) Carry on!

Bud (Michael Rooker) and Lonny (David Dastmalchian) try to find a way to free their fellow employees from the Colombian high-rise building in THE BELKO EXPERIMENT.

Barry Norris (Tony Goldwyn), Wendell Dukes (John C. McGinley) and Terry Winter (Owain Yeoman) will do anything it takes to get out of that office building alive in THE BELKO EXPERIMENT.

Mike Milch (John Gallagher Jr.) and Leandra Flores try to survive the murderous attempts made on their lives by fellow employees in THE BELKO EXPERIMENT.

Mike Milch is out for blood in THE BELKO EXPERIMENT.
