Yeah, I saw it when it was released. Did you ever see the original Twilight Zone episode it was based on?

Haven't seen the movie, but I saw the old Twilight Zone episode. Interesting thought experiment, but I've always found it to be a bit of a stretch as presented...

Spoiler:
I can't imagine many people (in the US anyway) would actually push the button; particularly for such a relatively small amount of money.

In this economy, when people care so little about others? We'd have a string of dead people from here to brooklyn.

This was unexpectedly scifi and creepy. Never saw the Twilight Zone episode though.

I've seen the original episode, the remade episode on the new Twilight zone, and haven't gotten around to seeing the new one because I don't see it filling out a movie, It is a short story.

Yeah, they kind of stretched it, and also it had Cameron Diaz and Cyclops.
