Overview

Milton Graves is not a killer. He's a rideshare driver, a husband, and a father desperately trying to keep his terminally ill son alive. So when Milton is mistakenly entered into a secret, high-stakes assassination tournament watched by millions, he does what any reasonable man would do: he tries to quit. Unfortunately, quitting isn't allowed. Forced to survive a brutal underground spectacle designed for wealthy voyeurs, Milton stumbles from one accidental kill to the next-each death grotesquely ironic, each victory more horrifying than the last. While seasoned assassins treat murder as performance art, Milton survives through panic, luck, and an unwavering refusal to become what the game demands. As the body count rises and the prize money dangles just out of reach, Milton discovers the cruelest truth of all: even winning may not save his son. And the people watching don't care about justice, mercy, or intention-they just want a good ending. Darkly funny, emotionally devastating, and razor-sharp in its social critique, The Cost is a psychological thriller about violence without intent, love without limits, and a society that turns human suffering into entertainment. Because in a world obsessed with spectacle, even survival has a price.
