After discovering a burglar in the kitchen, Aaron and his friends accidentally kill the intruder and, rather than breach their one true refuge from the real world, decide to dispose of the body without involving the authorities. But the burglar may not have been alone, and the witness seems to be exacting a grisly revenge. Judy Reyes (SCRUBS), Johnny Messner (RUNNING SCARED), Loren Dean (ENEMY OF THE STATE), and Lori Heuring (MULHOLLAND DR.) star in this tense thriller. [More]

Reviews for The Poker Club
based on a book, but I imagine that quite a bit got lost in translation from book to script to final film
If you're looking for a good time killer, look elsewhere. The Poker Club fails miserably at everything it attempts to do. Sigh.
