In The Divide, nine strangers-all tenants of a New York high rise apartment-escape a nuclear attack by hiding out in the building's bunker-like basement. Trapped for days underground with no hope for rescue, and only unspeakable horrors awaiting them on the other side of the bunker door, the group begins to descend into madness, each turning on one another with physical and psycho-sexual torment. As supplies dwindle, and tensions flare, and they grow increasingly unhinged by their close quarters and hopelessness, each act against one another becomes more depraved than the...
FMV says: "This Lord of the Flies-esque post-apocalyptic thriller is entertaining in a dark, nasty and murky way. It does not hesitate to make you feel uncomfortable, and it certainly makes you think how you would react if placed in a similar scenario - making The Divide well worth watching."
Jeremy of The Daily Rotation wrote, "Director of the controversial horror film Frontier(s) and one the better video game adaptations, Hitman, Xavier Gens is for the most part, an unknown ready to breakout. He doesn’t have a particular style that can be picked out from a mile away, but he does have an eye for taking simple concepts and expanding them into richer content. Hitman could have easily been ruined if a more mainstream director took the reins, but Gens respectfully remained faithful to the series while adding enough action and flare to warrant a big screen adaptation. The Divide is a post-apocalyptic film that’s more concerned with its characters than the actual end of the world setting. That is however, both the films biggest strength and biggest weakness."
