Starting out as what seems to be a workspace satire, the film quickly shifts gear and moves into flat-out carnage and escalating thrills, as employee Mike (played by John Gallagher, Jr. from The Newsroom and 10 Cloverfield Lane) sees a normal day at the office turn into a fight to the death.

THE BELKO EXPERIMENT is a terrifying, provocative and at times hilarious thrill-ride that literally provokes the question; what does it take to survive at work? © 2017 Orion Releasing LLC.
