13 SINS (Horror - Thriller 2014)

You get a cryptic phone call that tells you about a set of tasks, each task more dangerous than the other. And with each task you complete you find that it has a financial reward attached to it. However, the farther you go and the more the amount grows, so does the danger level. What do you do? What do you do?


Elliot (Mark Webber) is a down-on-his-lick salesman and is deeply in debt. And whop has just been fired from his job. On top of that Elliot is about to marry the love of his life. While sitting at a stop light one night Elliot gets a cryptic phone call telling him that he is now part of a hidden camera game show with a prize that totals 6 million bucks. All he has to do complete 13 tasks by the end of the night. At first Elliot blow off the call, thinking  that one of his friends are messing with him until the caller tells Elliot to kill the fly in the car that is buzzing around, then eat. Calling the caller's bluff Elliot does just that. And when he finds that a thousand dollars has been placed in his account, Elliot allows himself to be drawn into a deadly game where the dangers escalate with each new request. However so does the pay off.





"13 Sins" is the latest in a long line of films that have been dealing with people's resolve on the financial crisis most of the country finds themselves in. (2012's "Would You Rather" "The House on Haunted Hill" remake & "Indecent Proposal" all come to mind) However, with Hollywood, no all of them are good and when something seems to work they like to beat the idea to fucking death. Thankfully this current idea hasn't been done too many times (Although I know that this has been a genre of movies in Asia for quite sometime and should come to no surprise that Hollywood continues to steal ideas from other countries) and from the look of the trailer I'm sort of curious about how it'll be. That and it has Ron Perlman in it.

Until Next Time...

DOLLFACE - Horror Short to Gear Up for Halloween



Sometimes it just doesn't pay to play good humanitarian and returned things dropped on the door step but weird trick-r-treaters. So remember that this Halloween when they come knocking at your door.

Until next time...

"The Purge" First Look and Thoughts

The new thriller "The Purge" set to hit theater at the start at the Summer Blockbuster season has an interesting concept. I mean, I for one, have had many a conversation along this line where if you could get away with murder, would you? and if life would be better if we could go out and kill assholes once year. How the world would somehow be transformed into a better place. I know, I am a sick sick person at times, however, so are you for reading this... lol... any way...

The Purge stars Ethan Hawke (Sinister) and Lena Headey (The Game of Thrones) as two parents that would rather sit out this little soiree of violence, locking themselves and their two children behind a security system that basically is suppose to turn their home into a fortress, as we enter their lives right before the time of mayhem is to begin. Hawke is having to explain why the world is the way it is and why they would rather sit out and not participate. Sound reasoning that falls on deaf ears when it comes to his son who takes it upon himself to rally against the grain of society and help out a stranger who being chase by unknown assailants that he sees from the camera. Unfortunately, for them, that person is seen entering the residents. And quickly hides. Because in truth there is no reason why they won't kill him themselves. But this rash decision now has consciences when the pursuers show up looking for their quarry. Giving Hawke and his family an hour to find and turn him out. Thus sets the stage for a night that will forever change the way Hawke and his family view the world. If they survive that is.

From the trailer it looks like something possibly worth checking out. Especially in a summer that will more than likely be plagued with the same crap that always seems to come out. Your usual set of Superhero flicks and remakes galore. Time for something different in my book.

Until next time... stay bloody
