Deviation (2012)

Add caption
Hopefully with films like "Deviation" and " ATM", the claustrophobic thriller will find its footing, and push out the found footage genre as the go-to scare. This small scale British film about an escaped prisoner (Danny Dyer) taking an unsuspecting nurse (Anna Walton) hostage, is both chilling and captivating. The premise is terrifying and realistic, and there is nothing about it that feels forced. Dyer gives such an unnerving performance it could rival any madman that has graced the screen in recent memory. Walton plays opposite him with beautifully subdued sparks of fear and cunning that make his insanity come to life.
