Recently, I brought you news of an upcoming indie suspense movie, from Big Shot Pictures and Director Stig Svendsen, titled Elevator. Now, we finally get our first real glimpse into the suspenseful Elevator as I’ve recently been sent several images from the film.
Elevator is the story of 9 strangers trapped inside an elevator. The catch: one of them has a bomb that could go off at any minute. As these strangers are pushed to their limits, we watch to find out what each character is made of as the suspense mounts and the web of intrigue unravels. Elevator gives terrorism a new meaning and raises compelling questions about who the real criminals are, in a world where the powerful few can so easily manipulate the financial system at the expense of many.

Last October, I reported on an indie thriller movie being made called Elevator. The movie is about a group of 9 people trapped on an elevator while one of them has a bomb. Chaos ensues as the passengers become overcome with panic and start taking it out on one another all while trying to find a way out. Previously, I brought you news of the movie along with images, a behind-the-scenes look and an interview with the director and the writer. Now I present to you the trailer for this claustrophobic thriller. After the jump you’ll also find the official poster for the movie.
Is it just me or is this almost identical to DEVIL, minus the Devil aspects? I mean take out the end of Devil and you have this entire trailer. So in otherwords, not looking forward to it.

Just the other day I got to talk with director Stig Svendsen on the indie thriller Elevator. Now, continuing with that coverage, I’ve had the opportunity to interview Marc Rosenberg. Marc is the writer and producer of Elevator. We got a chance to talk about the film and his relationship with Stig. As well, Marc talked about his influences, future projects and whether or not he ever plans to become that triple-threat guy by taking a seat in the director’s chair.

I’ve recently been given more pictures for the upcoming indie thriller Elevator. Here’s a peek behind the scenes for the movie.
I still am not getting my hopes up on this one lol. I think it has potential to be good, but everything I see is not helping me believe it will be. It just keeps questions in my head on if they will do it correctly or not.
I think Devil proved its super hard to do anything in regards to suspense in an elevator. There has to be stuff going on outside. However a good director, aka anyone other than Uwe Boll and M Night, can probably create something watchable with this scenerio. You have to work clostophobia alot in a film like this, something Devil didnt do because it always cut away to other things just as you were about to get the feeling.
