"The Box"

Incredibly intriguing premise; push the button of a box given as a 'gift,' one gets a million dollar... and a stranger that you don't know dies. It deals with "What would you do? moral dilemma. Of course, by pushing the button, they suffer personal consequences. Unfortunately, the intrigue stops at the premise. While it is suspenseful, it looks superficially scary.  Throughout and in the end, a huge letdown due to disconnected scenes and unexplainable chains of events (such a dreadful disappointment from 'Donnie Darko's Richard Kelly).
