The Collector (2009)

Action, Crime, Horror |.

The Collector is a American psychological slasher film written by Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton, and directed by Dunstan. The script, titled The Midnight Man, was at one point shopped as a prequel to the Saw franchise, but the producers opposed the idea and dismissed it. A sequel, The Collection, was released in 2012.

Married couple Larry and Gena return home to find the power is out. They discover a large trunk upstairs, and are horrified by its contents. They are then attacked by an unseen assailant.

Former convict Arkin O’Brien works as a handyman for the Chase family. He is generally well-liked by the Chases, especially the younger daughter Hannah. After work, Arkin meets his wife, whose debt to several loan sharks is due by midnight. To protect her and their daughter, Arkin plans to steal a valuable ruby from the Chase home.

As Arkin attempts to crack the safe, a masked figure locks the door. Michael, the father, appears with several injuries. Mistaking Arkin for the perpetrator, he grabs a golf club. Michael’s action triggers a trap that incapacitates him, and the masked man drags Michael into the basement. Arkin calls 911, but the phone is rigged with another trap. The windows have been boarded up and lined with razors, making escape impossible.
