This dark and suspenseful campus comedy was co-written by Kristen “KD” Davila, whose Oscar-nominated short film, Please Hold, is a searing delight that anyone in need of a chuckle should immediately watch (it’s only 19 minutes long). If you like Please Hold, you’ll definitely want to give Emergency a try.
It all begins with two BFs, who are possibly growing apart, making big plans for all-night revelling. Naturally, the plans go tits up. Olivia Wilde reworked the formula in Booksmart. Reggie Yates freshened it up in Pirates. Davila and director, Carey Williams, find their own angle with the help of a jaunty cast, led by Donald Elise Watkins and RJ Cyler.
