Well folks it’s been nearly nine months since our last update on England’s horror anthology LITTLE DEATHS so I’d say it’s about time to hear some news on this little diddy, right? Right.
The first news we’ve got today regarding LITTLE DEATHS is that the project has scored itself a spot in the UK’s Film4 FrightFest. Sex, death, and more sex, and more death. How can you go wrong?? We’ve also got a look at a brand new one-sheet for the project to celebrate it’s entry into the fest. And what a one-sheet it is! A naked chick with shards of glass digging into her back… Gotta love it! Just scroll on down below to check that shite out!
Scope out the rundown for each of the three stories found in LITTLE DEATHS:
Simon Rumley’s BITCH: Stuck in a destructive relationship that isn’t going anywhere and lousy dead-end jobs that have no future, Claire and Pete live in a council flat and are united only in their love of rock music. The flame of passion having long since died, the couple derive a strange sexual pleasure from an unspoken sadomasochistic role-playing game where Claire finds new and inventive ways of mistreating Pete – and Pete, ever the devoted lap dog, takes what she dishes out time and again. But in an unspoken game the boundaries are hazy, and when Claire unwittingly takes things one step too far, Pete devises a way to teach the bitch to heel, once and for all.
Andrew Parkinson’s MUTANT TOOL: Jen, a former prostitute and recovering drug addict, is undergoing therapy in a bid to turn her life around. Her new therapist, Dr. Reece, comes as a recommendation via her boyfriend Frank. But unbeknownst to Jen, Frank and Dr. Reece have a shadowy criminal relationship. The therapist is involved with a bizarre black market narcotics trade, in which the semen from human mutations created during WWII Nazi experiments is harvested and processed for its psychic effects on the human brain. And now the last known mutant is dying, and a suitable replacement must be found.
Sean Hogan’s HOUSE AND HOME: A well-to-do yuppie couple, Richard and Victoria, pose as concerned religious do-gooders in order to lure homeless girls back to their home for perverted sex games. After deciding upon their latest target, a mysterious young woman named Sorrow, they drug and imprison her before subjecting her to a series of assaults and humiliations. However, the captive girl is not as helpless as she first appears, and the couple soon find the rules of the game have changed …
So there you have it folks! A nifty little long awaited update for LITTLE DEATHS. Be sure to keep it here for more on the horror anthology as we wait for it to hit FrightFest, which runs from August 25th through August 29th.
