Hey what's up guys
Today I'll show you a horror anthology TV series: "Down"
Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care
The movie begins on a dark and stormy night over a city
It is the day before Valentine's day, and people have already left work
However, in a particular deserted office building,
an account supervisor is still working late at night
Her laptop screen is flashing brightly in the darkened room,
and she types an email to an old flame,
telling him that she'll be flying to New York that night, and she'd love to meet with him
On the other side of the building, a man emerges from a restroom stall, and adjusts his clothes
He accidentally wets himself with water from the faucet
He hurriedly dries the wet spot with the hand dryer
Back in the supervisor's office, she decides not to send the email after all
Shaking her head, she closes her laptop and gets ready to leave
She grabs a printout of her flight ticket for tonight, and exits the office
Then She gets into the elevator from the 49th floor
Meanwhile, the man leaves the restroom on the 42nd floor,
and gets into the same elevator as the woman
Initially, he tries to make a small talk with her,
asking her where she's parked, how she feels about the long weekend,
and even joking about the gift bag that she's carrying
For the most part, the woman seems disinterested and just politely replies
She comments on the bottle of wine he's holding,
and he explains that a client gifted it to him after closing a deal
The man points at a crude drawing scrawled on the elevator wall
It's a stick figure inside a box, begging to be let out
The two joke that somebody deranged drew it
Suddenly, the elevator comes to a stop
They try hitting the call, and alarm buttons on the panel, but it appears not to be working
They get confused, since the lights and the small TV screen on the elevator are working fine,
The man tries to pry the doors open, but he couldn't
They then try waving at the CCTV camera;
and the supervisor wonders why there isn't anyone responding from the security office
Their phones also don't receive any signal, because they're a few floors underground already
The two spend the time getting to know each other
The supervisor reveals that she's working for a Public Relations company,
occupying the top floors of the building, while the man is a newcomer at an accounting firm,
housed in the same building
They then try to scream through the doors, but they seem to be the only ones left in the building
The two decide to go out through the elevator vent
The man bends and hoists the supervisor, but can't find any hatch on the ceiling
Her hand snags on something, and she gets hurt, so they stop their attempts
An hour passes, and the supervisor is officially not making it to her flight anymore
By this point, the two are just dejected; and they slump on the floor
She mentions that she's thirsty, and the man offers his half-empty water bottle
In return, she shares some chocolate with him
The two then ponder if they'd be stuck in the elevator until Tuesday,
since it's Friday night now and Monday is a holiday,
meaning that they all have to miss Daniel cc horror movies for three days
Four hours in; and the supervisor needs to pee badly
The man tries to assure her that it's not that smelly if she has to pee on the elevator,
but she's too shy to do so
He even offers her his coat to pee on;
but in the end, she decides to use her empty thermos while the man turns his back
Using a wine opener she found in her bag,
the supervisor adds another stick figure to the elevator wall,
drawing to mimic their current situation
The man shares that he's a workaholic,
so no one would be looking for him, even if he's gone too long
He asks if anyone would be worried about her, since she's supposed to be on a flight right now;
but she answers that it was supposed to be a surprise, so no one is waiting for her
To cheer her up, he opens the wine bottle
The two sit next to each other, and take turns drinking
The supervisor and the man are now playing a game, where they sketch the other person;
and he suddenly confesses that he's seen her around in the lobby before
He remembers her because she always seemed so nice
The supervisor assures him that she doesn't think he's a stalker;
and the two reveal their sketches of the other
She's drawn him as a devil drinking wine as a joke, while he drew her very beautifully
She chalks her artistic interpretation of him up to her being hungry;
and they begin fantasizing about the food they want to eat
The conversation quickly veers into X-rated territory,
when the supervisor asks the man a question about his past conquests
He blushes and refuses to answer, so she tells a tale of a past escapade with a former boyfriend
He is wowed by her adventure,
and says that none of his experiences can ever come close to her story
Not willing to give up, the supervisor urges him to make up a fantasy instead
They are recording everything on her phone;
and he starts to tell her a fantasy about him, and a hot co-worker in his car
The supervisor steps closer to him; and he abruptly ends the story
He shyly admits that his hormones are turned on by their game;
and the supervisor tells him that she appreciates his honesty
He takes things a step further, by confessing that he'd like to tongue massage her right now
He walks to her side of the elevator, and kisses her
They fall into a quarantined hormone game
After their tryst, the man makes the wrong move,
by saying that he is halfway to falling in love with her already
The supervisor is thrown by this shocking development, and sets the record straight with him
what they had was nice,
but she is still in love with her ex-fiance, and she wants to fix things with him
This is not at all what the man wants to hear,
because he thinks that what he and the supervisor have is a real connection
He promises to take her out, when they're free of the elevator;
and she'll see that they belong together
But the supervisor shoots him down, and tells him that when they're out of the elevator,
they'll go back to their lives and move on
The man is now visibly upset, and admits that he's been watching her all this time
He shows her a few of the security camera images, that he got of her throughout the building
In fact, he's been doing so much more than watching her;
he's fantasizing about having her; and he planned everything,
so he can finally get to talk to her, and make her see that he's the one
It turns out that the man isn't an accountant,
but a security guard assigned to the front desk of the building
He has the key to the elevator, and he used it to stop it,
and make the supervisor believe that they're trapped
No security guard has come to their rescue,
because he is supposed to be the security guard on duty tonight
In his despair at her rejection, he inserts the key,
and gets the elevator running again, telling her that she's free to leave
While he's telling his chilling tale, the supervisor cowers into the farthest corner of the elevator
It sinks into her that he is an obsessed stalker, and she becomes afraid
However, when he inserts the key again,
she goes ballistic and threatens that she will call the cops, and throw him in jail
They get into an altercation that ends with the key being broken,
and them trapped for real this time
The man appears to be unconscious from the physical blows the supervisor gave him;
and she checks if he is dead
But he opens his eyes, and suddenly slams her head against the floor, rendering her unconscious
She groggily wakes up and moves to the corner opposite the man
She asks him why he trapped them inside the elevator, instead of just asking her out
He answers that he needs to get her away from other distractions,
so she would realize that he's better than everyone else
He even points out the irony of their situation:
he wanted a relationship with her, and they technically met, got to know each other,
and broke up all inside a tiny room
The supervisor insists that other security guards must also be in the building,
but he replies that he took care of the guards' shifts for them, and no one else is coming
She yells at him for kidnapping her; and he responds by choking and slamming her against the wall
He tells her that she liked him; and all he did was encourage their attraction to each other
The man then proceeds to taunt her, by opening the gift she got for her ex-fiance
He wears the shirt and smokes the cigar from the cigar set she bought
While this is happening, the supervisor is just crying
After his rage passes, the man apologizes,
and tells her that he just gets like that sometimes when he's mad
He smashes the panel of light on the side of the elevator,
then gets the idea to break one of the ceiling tiles; so they can go out
Now, it's only a matter of who will give whom a boost
The man suggests that she give him a boost, so he can get the elevator running again
The supervisor refuses and insists that he give her a boost instead;
and then she'll get help for the both of them
He is worried that she'll leave him stranded there, but she asks him to trust her
She even promises that she won't call the cops, and they'd go on vacation after they're free
This convinces him to let her climb first
The supervisor climbs through the opening;
and he instructs her to keep climbing to the elevator shaft
She smiles then leaves him in the elevator alone
She continues climbing, and attempts to reach the nearest elevator doors
She is about to pry them open, but the man follows her and grabs her foot
He jumps, and they both fall down back into the elevator
The supervisor wakes up first, and she hurriedly grabs a few sheets of paper from her bag,
and lights them with a cigar lighter from the gift set
The man wakes up too, but she kicks him in the face, and ties him up
The fire she started successfully triggers a fire alarm;
and she hopes that the fire department will come to their aid soon
In the meantime, she grabs a cigar cutter from the same set, and threatens to torture the man
He begs her not to hurt him; and she offers him a deal:
he confesses everything on camera, and she won't maim him
He agrees, and she starts filming his confession
He tells her his real name, and that he made the drawing on the elevator wall earlier that day
He tracked her movement through the security cameras;
so he could get inside the elevator with her at the right moment
He then distracted her with the drawing, while he used the key to stop the elevator
He admits to kidnapping the supervisor and hurting her
The man also additionally confesses that he used to be a hotshot executive in a big firm,
and that fantasy about the hot co-worker was true
They were fooling around, and he got distracted, driving off the road and crashing into a tree
This immediately killed the woman he was with
He only got six months in jail; but when he got out, he couldn't get a job anymore
His money ran out, and he was forced to take a lowly security job in the building,
where he eventually first saw the supervisor
He knew that if he approached her as a security guard, she wouldn't have given him the time of day
And more than anything, he wanted to be the same hotshot executive, when he finally met her
So that's why he made that plan to kidnap her
The supervisor stops filming, moved by his story
Unbeknownst to the two, another security guard has entered the building with his girlfriend,
to take her to the high-rise building's roof
He notices that the man is not at the front desk like he was supposed to,
and then he sees on the security camera feed that there are people stuck in the elevator
He contacts the supervisor through the elevator's call button,
and hurriedly goes down to manually open the elevator
The security guard arrives and tries to help them out,
but the man knocks the supervisor unconscious, then kills the security guard
He carries her outside, then stashes her in the trunk of his car
After he disposes of the body and cleans up the mess,
He puts on his uniform and deletes all security camera footage
The security guard's girlfriend asks him if he's seen him; and he kills her as well
He then disposes of her body, and drives away with the supervisor still unconscious in his trunk
The man drives to a secluded place, then douses a large dumpster with gasoline
He says goodbye to her and opens the trunk;
so he can throw her body into the dumpster and set it on fire
While his back is turned, the supervisor hits his head with the gasoline can
She runs inside the car, and drives away as he howls in pain
She reverses the car, and runs him over
She gets out and sees him barely clinging to life inside the dumpster
The movie ends with the supervisor lighting a cigar, smoking it,
then using it to set the dumpster and the man on fire
