Locked (4 Stars)


This is the fifth film in the Stuttgart Nights Festival.

Eddie Barrish isn't a bad man, but he does what he has to do to survive. His van breaks down, and he can't afford the repair costs, making it impossible for him to pick up his daughter from school. He steals a wallet and a few other small items, but it's not enough to pay the repair bill. Then he sees a luxury car standing in a car park. The door isn't locked, so he enters it to look for valuable items. He doesn't find anything, so he wants to leave, but the door is locked. A voice tells him that he's being punished for breaking into the car. Eddie is kept in the car for days on end while the voice taunts him.

The film is interesting, though I don't find it particularly feasible. The acting by Bill Skarsgard is excellent.
