Fantasia Festival: Game of Death [2016]
The opening sequence for Sebastien Landry, Laurence Baz Morais’ “Game of Death” fills me with a mixture of dread and nervous excitement, as I subject myself to what appears to be another low budget indie-horror movie. There are only so many of these you can watch until films “so bad that they’re good” actually just become bad, but every now and then you get a real gem. The 70 odd minute running time gives me hope that this is either going to be over quickly, or it will be absolutely relentless.
