The Chair is a psychological thriller that tells the story of a group of students who are put to the test by their professor. The professor, who specializes in social psychology, assigns the students a project that requires them to replicate the results of a controversial experiment that involved subjecting people to extreme stress levels. As the students work on their project, they begin to experience strange and disturbing events that make them question their sanity.

The movie follows the story of a young woman named Samantha Hughes, who is played by Alanna Masterson. Samantha is a graduate student who is struggling to finish her thesis. When her professor, Dr. Scott, played by David Sullivan, assigns her to lead the group project of the replication experiment, Samantha jumps at the opportunity.

The experiment they are replicating as part of the project revolves around an electric chair. The original experiment involved subjecting people to extreme stress to see how they would react. In the experiment, people were made to believe that they were going to be executed in the electric chair. The experiment was controversial because it was considered unethical and inhumane. However, it did yield some interesting results.

As the students begin their project, they notice that strange things begin to happen. The experiments appear to be affecting the students in different ways. Some become more aggressive or paranoid, while others start to hallucinate. Samantha begins to suspect that there is something more to the experiment than just a simple replication.

As the project progresses, the students learn that the chair they are using for the experiment has a dark history. The chair was used in the original experiment, and it is said to be haunted. The students start to believe that the chair is causing the disturbing events that they are experiencing.

Samantha's obsession with the experiment and the chair escalates, and she starts to spiral out of control. She becomes more paranoid and starts to see things that may or may not be real. The other students in the project are also affected by the experiment, and they begin to question their own sanity.

The Chair is a nerve-wracking thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that something sinister is at work. The film plays with the audience's perception of reality, and it's never quite clear what is real and what's imagined.

Overall, The Chair is a well-crafted psychological thriller that will appeal to fans of the genre. The acting is solid, and the story is engaging. The film explores the dark side of human nature and how far people will go for their own ambition. If you're looking for a movie that will keep you guessing until the final credits roll, then The Chair is definitely worth a watch.
