TrashHouse
Director: Pat Higgins
Year: 2006
If you're going to give people a great deal of power, you need to know that they can handle it. To test an experimental implant that gives people complete control over their environment, a secret agency assembles five strangers. According to their reading habits, employment histories and shopping records, they are five of the most balanced people in England. These five are offered an opportunity to spend a week in a specially designed house, in which they will have ultimate power during set hours of the day, within their own rooms. Two of the subjects, David and Lucy, create an environment of 50s domestic tranquillity. Another, Charlotte, uses the power to gain knowledge and advance mankind. Another, Luke, is just looking to have as much fun as possible. There is, however, a fly in the ointment. The final subject, James Todd, is not who he claimed to be. The records weren't his. He is not one of the most balanced people in England. He's a borderline psychopath, and having so much power at his fingertips looks set to erase that border altogether.
