Trivialidades:

All of the characters are named after prisons: Quentin (San Quentin, California), Holloway (England), Kazan (Russia), Rennes (France), Alderson (Alderson, West Virginia), Leaven and Worth (Leavenworth, Kansas).

Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Kazam is supposed to be a math genius, something that the plot hinges on, but he makes several mistakes when calculating the number of prime factors to find out whether a room is trapped or not. He says that 462 has three prime factors, when it has four, that 206 has four when it only has two and that 563 has two and 911 has three when both are actually prime numbers.

Quotes:

Worth: Hey! Listen to what I'm saying. We haven't been moving in circles, the rooms have.

Senseless must see

This movie just doesn't make much sense and leaves the viewer with many questions. It has almost no special effects, the actors are unknown and the story can be told in two sentences. Yet, the atmosphere is tight and exciting. It is so tight, that I rate this movie as a must see!
