Plot:
Looking forward to a once-in-a-life experience on the most romantic night of the year, six single twenty-somethings find themselves Valentine’s Day guests of a wealthy, mysterious host and his tight-lipped butler.
Each of the invitees has been offered $10,000 and the promise of love—if only they can make it through dinner and reach a personal “breakthrough.”
With nothing to lose and thousands to gain, these strangers open their hearts and minds to the possibility of real, romantic connections. By night’s end, all but two of them are dead!
