The Netflix Supernatural Horror Thriller Makes Video Games Into A Nightmare
Upon its straight-to-streaming release on Netflix, Choose or Die did not fare well among critics and horror fans, and earned a 33 percent critical score on Rotten Tomatoes to drive the point home.
While those who enjoyed the movie remarked on the film’s potential to be franchised out, many felt that the film offered more style than substance in its efforts to become the next long-running horror property rather than being a unique stand-alone film in its own right.
Many reviewers stated that the film’s latter half failed to meet their expectations once the story was established in the first act, leading to a profound feeling of disappointment.
