hsimpleton I really enjoyed this movie. How idea of playing a "game" to win $$ is normal, right? WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!!!What begins as a seemingly fraternity-like challenge of eating a fly slowly escalates. As Elliott becomes more and more engrossed with getting paid, he loses his moral self, and starts doing more and more erratic spontaneous acts to cover up for what he was initially required to do. Child abuse, desecrating a corpse, urinating on the food/destroying his own marriage rehearsal dinner, all lead up to the Grand Finale/Winning Prize...but....to collect any/all he must complete the last of the 13 challenge of...you guessed it...MURDER. And not just any ole body....a FAMILY MEMBER must die...!I thought it was going to be his fiance, beautiful Rutina Wesley, who woulg get targeted, but turns out his mentally challenged brother was not so mentally challenged after all. The street scene with the bike riders getting massacred by driving through an unseen steel cable that little bro rests after Elliott releases it attests to that! And my boy Ron Perlman was delivering his usual swag as always!If you like gore, check this one out, you won't be disappointed.
Andy Van Scoyoc Twisted, demented, and sick on a level that bothered even a ghoul, like me. Psychological horror at its best...and by horror, I don't mean gore or anything like that (though there is a little bit) the horror is purely primal.It is absolutely ghastly to think that someone could be so desperate that they would even contemplate the actions perpetrated in this film.That, alone, is what makes it so upsetting.Never put anything past someone who's been pushed too far. You might find yourself surprised (and not in a good way) of what they're capable of. Highly, highly recommended!!!!
znegative There seems to be more and more horror and thriller films coming out that involve tests or games. These games usually start off harmless enough, but throughout the course of the movie, test a characters morality or will to survive, at times pitting the two against each other. With a wide net this genre of film would include Fermat's Room, Cube, Exam, Would You Rather, the Saw movies, etc. 13 sins fall into this category as well.I was initially a little hesitant to watch 13 Sins. It had gotten good reviews, and was free through Prime, but just like I'm starting to get sick of time travel films, I'm also a little bored with this genre as well. However, boredom and lack of options led me to trek forward and give this little thriller a shot.The story centers around a man with a pregnant wife who loses his job, and receives a phone call inviting him to partake in a game in which he has to complete 13 tasks in order to win a few million dollars. The first task is simple enough, kill a fly. The second, is to eat it. However, as the protagonist dives deeper into the game, it becomes more dangerous and immoral.I don't really know what to say about this movie, for it wasn't remarkable, but it was definitely entertaining. There's some good laughs as well as some good tension. It didn't bore me, and it offered something a little different for the genre.
