13: Game Of Death

 

Thailand 2006, 110 minutes
Dir. Chukiat Sakveerakul, Stewart St. John
In Thai with English subtitles
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Horror

 

Aroview: Twisted Thai horror in which a down-and-out salesman, targeted by a mysterious phone call, is offered millions if he can complete 13 increasingly disturbed challenges.

Halfway between the grotesque end game of SAW, and the enterprising spectacles hatched on Reality TV and the world wide web (a la MY LITTLE EYE), this heats up a rather unimaginative premise (of human threshold and desperation) with brisk, stylishly direction, touches of black humour, and a series of well-thought out scenarios that build the film’s tension and squeamish factor to boiling point.
