Critical reception

The film review aggregator website Metacritic collected five reviews and assessed four as mixed and one as negative. Based on the reviews, the website gave the film a score of 40 out of 100, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[1]

Drone

Director Ben Parker said of the drone's inclusion, "A drone that crashed in the ocean was where the kernel of the story came from. I’ve always been fascinated, or rather terrified, by drones... The disconnect of using unmanned aircraft for attacks is something that scares me. And The Chamber was really about all my darkest fears rolled into one, so I wanted the plot to revolve around the recovery of one of these drones."[2]
