This movie has a distinct Funny Games feel to it, but takes a little less time developing the personality of the antagonists, which is a shame. There are touches, but most are peppered in to move the story forward, ratger than really setting them apart in terms of their goals and reasons for doing what they do. There is a good punt of playing with audience expectations, so that the film keeps you guessing rather than simply being predictable, but it almost feels like it ends too quickly because of this. Several threads are left unexplored and a little more could have gone a long way to making this a much more rewarding watch. Overall the film is good and never really lags or feels cheap. It has something to say and is delivered well. With a little more development it could have been really great.

Couldn't finish this movie. Too upsetting. Just a sick and twisted game of psychopathic torture. Unless you like Saw, don't watch it.

Amazing movie, will watch again. Each actor made it their due diligence to make their character so believable. Thriller mixed with a hint of comedy.Loyalty,friendship, and fear all wrapped in one. Its a movie worth watching!

This movie is often rather intense at times and silly at others, still worth a watch.

Pathetic excuse for a horror flick,find something better to do.

Pledge that This is a Fun, Unique, Horror/Thriller. It is a well accomplished film. Starts off as a teen movie with slight hints of dark comedy, and builds to a more serious toned, thriller and horror. Film does a good job of keeping you guessing about who lives and dies. If done right, It's a wonderful thing when you aren't sure who's the protagonist(s) and who lives or dies. I Wished for more T&A....just to add to the realism and a it would have added tad bit more fun and film depth. Plot: The film is about a pledge in a college frat or is it; and how far will you go to join? Will you join? I was never bored and the film was well acted, and no glaring holes. I give it 8.7 pledges out of 10.

I couldn't make it ten minutes in. I give a lot of indie flicks a chance but this has no saving grace.

I didn't know what to expect from "Pledge" & I'm happy to say that it turned out to be a tight little indie horror/thriller. We've seen the idea hundreds of times before, yet the director and writer managed to serve an old formula with some additional garnish. Things I liked about "Pledge" includes cinematography and editing - considering the obviously low budget, it's simply yet beautifuly shot and executed, visually it's quite appealing, starting with wide variety of shots and ending with feels-right color grading. I also enjoyed the gore & choreography - both things do not take up a lot of screentime, but when they're there, you can appreciate the effort & the result. I was also surprised about the acting, which was more decent than my sceptical mind was expecting, given the little known, young team of actors. However, the characters were not all that great - David was just begging to get killed, being quite an annoying character. The three main villains did not impress, scare or have any real impact on me as well, they were slightly underwhelming. The story is simple, entertaining, with small twists here and there - definitely holds your attention just enough. All in all, "Pledge" will not make you go "wow", but it will entertain You for 75 straight minutes & satisfy the appetite for a good indie horror flick. A solid 6/10.
