Great movie. Needs a sequel

This movie totally kept me guessing until the very end. The people I thought would die didn't. I like how the writer made the rules, up the ante and then modified them. I liked guessing which people would die and how it would happen. I liked seeing the characters react to their predicament.

I liked it and agree it needs a sequel.

Not sure where they'd go with a sequel, I like the ending showing MORE experiments going on simultanously...I like the endings that make your mind imagine away without going into full details. This is good enough as is (stand alone flick), but wouldn't be angry over a sequel either.

The ending actually showed that there was one survivor from each of the many MORE experiments going on simultaneously. All /any one of those survivors is a place to go with a sequel. Unnecessary sequels are made from movies with a lesser premise all the time.

I enjoyed everything except the way it ended when the purpose of the experiment was finally revealed. I thought the ending jumped the shark. I don't think the movie deserves a sequel either. I'm getting very tired of sequels anyway.

It was pretty intense. Greg Mclean's best since Wolf Creek. But then that's not really saying much.

I liked it well enough for what it was, but I don't see a need for a sequel. What more can they do or say that wasn't already done and said? It would be a money-grab retread like Human Centipede 2 or Beyond the Poseidon Adventure. The original story was self-contained (and extraordinarily derivative). That said, they clearly left it open for a sequel when the voice-over intoned "End of Phase 1. Prepare for Phase 2." I guess the lone survivor of each "experiment" will be pitted against one another. Been there, seen that.

That may apply to you- but realize everyone does not have the cup or the hat.
Like I previously stated- unnecessary sequels are made from movies with a lesser premise all the time.
Movies that don't need a sequel very often not only get a sequel, (and sometimes even the dreaded prequel ) but a part 3, 4, 5, 6 , and so on . So it's not about need, what it boils down to is there some producer somewhere who will take on the task.
If one is made from The Belco Experiment, then it's simple - anyone who doesn't want to see it doesn't have to.
