Shut In is part of Daily Wire’s ongoing attempt to break into the movie industry. By all rights, this should feel lurid, disgusting, and a reprehensible dive into human depravity, but the film actually does manage to make a modest production out of the preceding premise. Three methheads get into a fight in a rotting farmhouse that results in one of them being forcibly locked in a pantry while her children are alone in the house with a roaming drug-addicted pedophile. Shut In has a premise that should by all rights be lurid and exploitative in the hands of a cheap director. Positive Content: Themes of Christian redemption and family.ĭisclaimer: This reviewer has written two film reviews that have been published at the Daily Wire in the past but has no professional connections to the distributor or the producers of this film. Other Negative Themes: Very dark themes and story that isn’t appropriate for children. Spiritual Content: Themes of redemption, rebirth, and overcoming temptation. Sexual Content: Nothing depicted, although one character is repeatedly described as a pedophile.ĭrug/Alcohol Use: Meth addiction is a theme in the story and a major plot point. Language/Crude Humor: Severe language throughout including f*** and s***. Violence/Scary Images: Some intense images several scenes of nails being driven through hands with draining blood and cries of agony, a man is set on fire, characters are shot offscreen. The second of these is scheduled to premiere this coming Thursday live on YouTube before being exclusively released on the Daily Wire’s streaming service. Their lineup of films includes last year’s Run Hide Fight, Shut In, Terror on the Prairie, and an upcoming unnamed film directed by exiled Mandalorian actress Gina Carano.
In order to do that, it’s brought on the former producers from Cinestate to form a small independent studio capable of producing slick, shocking, and attention-grabbing action films and thrillers. The Daily Wire has made a major effort in the past two years to try and break into filmmaking as part of its effort to turn the tide of the culture war.
