(2004) The 24th Day
PSYCHOLOGICAL DRAMA
Adapted from Tony Piccirillo own play, directing it for the screen centers on Tom (Scott Speedman) holding Dan (James Marsden) hostage against his own free will, for the purpose of knowing what the test results are going to be, which is the "24th day"- hence the title. After he finds out he is HIV positive, he assumes he may have got it from the guy name he tied on to a chair.
After watching this movie, the tone is somewhat similar to another movie that may be more controversial than this one, called "Death In the Maiden"that has actress Sigourney Weaver tying actor, Ben Kingsley onto a chair, for the purpose of forcing a confession out of him, as she believes he violated her in terms of torture and assault. Therefore,it can be defined as a reboot rather than as a remake.
