The cost a brilliant story about David played by Jordan Fraser-Trumble, who lost her wife Stephanie played by Nicole Pastor 10 years ago after someone assaulted her and murdered her and threw her body, then the murderer got out of prison, and with the help of Stephanie's brother Aaron played by Damon Hunter, David and Aaron manged to kidnap the killer, and put him in the car in order to torture him then kill him the way he killed Stephanie.
The movie is really intense, the writing is brilliant, the way the movie is directed make you feel the situation as if you are witnessing in real life, even beating the killer with a stick feels more intense than a gun fight in action movie, and shows you how what David fantasized for 10 years thinking it would heal his wound seems so different now it's happening.
The cost is absolutely one of my favorite thrill movies in 2022, it's an example on why heroes must die, as the only perfect character in the whole died in the first minute of it.
