ZACH Cregger’s Weapons opens with a mystery that sounds like a math word problem: If 17 children left their homes and disappeared at 2.17 in the morning, and there’s only one kid and one teacher left in their classroom – who is to blame? Because someone has to be at fault.
To puzzle through this particularly dark riddle with maximum mysteriousness, writer/director Cregger follows the main characters through the aftermath of this peculiar event.
