SXSW 2017: Game of Death Trailer Splashes the Screen With Gore
If you’re attending SXSW this year, then one of the midnight screenings you’ll probably want to see with an audience is Sebastien Landry and Laurence Morais-Lagace’s Game of Death, which is being described as Jumanji meets Natural Born Killers. Having already seen the film, I can say that this isn’t an inaccurate way to describe the film, although I think there are other movies that could be cited as influences.
Regardless of what movies may have played a part in its creation, what matters is that it’s ready for the world to see! Just ahead of its world premiere at SXSW, an uncensored trailer for the movie has come out and it’s ready to make you thank the filmmakers for not only embracing practical FX but for bringing their A+ game and drenching everyone and nearly everything in viscera, blood, and gore! Check out the trailer, stills, and the poster below!
SXSW world premiere and screenings:
Tues. March 14, 11:45pm @ Alamo Ritz, 320 E. 6th St. (world premiere)
Friday, March 17, 7:00pm @ Stateside Theater
Synopsis:
Kill or be killed is the golden rule of the Game of Death, which sucks for seven decent-looking young friends who decide to play one sunny day. They quickly and gruesomely realize that if they don’t murder people, their heads will literally explode. Hence, they go on a killing spree, taking the lives of anyone they meet in their middle-of-nowhere town. The killer-instinct in each of them bubbles to the surface as their search for victims unravels into chaos. Divided, terrified and confronted with their own mortality, their drive to survive blurs with their desire to win the game. Will they turn on each other? “Jumanji” meets “Natural Born Killers”… The Game of Death will blow your mind.
