Would have been very creepy if someone knocked at the door just as you read that. I guess I could have increased my odds by just saying, "Answer that."
Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.

Quote from: "Cecilie"The headline of this thread reminds me of the movie 'The Box'. Never saw it though. Is it any good?

You see what I did there? I changed the subject for no reason at all.

I can't say anything about the movie, but the short story "Button, Button" by Richard Matheson it was based on was amazing. ;)

Basically this random guy shows up to this couple's place and offers them a  chance to push this button. If they push it, they'll receive a certain amount of money and someone whom they "don't know" will die. And I really don't know how to go into further detail without spoiling it. :P

Yeah, well I don't expect anybody knocking at my door at 00:47. Although if it happend, it would be even more scary 'cause it would be night time.

I'm pretty sure the movie's based on the short story. How they made a movie out of it I have no idea, because the story's only six or so pages long. XD

Maybe I'll see it and see how they did it.
