In 'The Patient,' Patience Doesn't Really Pay Off
'The Patient' is bound by four walls and a mediocre ending that leaves you wanting more.
Headshot
The story kicks off when a mysterious group organizes "Headshot", a recreation of a video game-inspired deathmatch featuring real people. Eight gamers, wearing custom armor and armed with air rifles, participate in the challenge, equipped with bodycams to broadcast the show live on the ZZIP platform. What appears to be a competition of wits and action, however, becomes a fight for survival, especially when the players discover a vicious killer among them.
