简介:

  Stuart Gordon, considered a master of the horror genre thanks to classics like Re-Animator and Dagon, decides to do a different move in this strange trip to human morals.
  
  "King of the Ants" is about a regular guy, Sean Crawley(newcomer Chris McKenna), a man without any aspiration who just live in his apartment doing the necessary job to live to the next day. In one of his jobs he meets Duke(Gearge Wendt), who introduces Sean to his boss, Ray Matthews(played by Daniel Baldwin). Ray hires Sean as a spy, and orders him to follow Eric Gatlin(Roy Livingstone), an accountant who has been investigating Ray's company. Problems start when Ray, while drunk, orders Sean to kill Eric. And he does it. Things go wrong when Ray decides to make Sean disappear destroying his mind with violent punishment and humiliation.
  
  From the point where Sean kills Eric, we go in the same boat with him, as he goes through a downward spiral of human degradation, traveling from guilt, to confusion and finally to his rebirth, in a state where humanity, morals and values are not important anymore. Chris McKenna acting is very important because he manages to be likable even when he is part of gruesome acts, both as victim and/or criminal. He has that look of innocence that hides a dark side and he manages to carry the film.
  
  The support cast also includes Kari Wuhrer, as Eric's widow who also becomes a central part of Sean's trip to hell. She gives a fine performance, although it's obvious that Sean is the main character. He is the most developed of all and McKenna's performance is up to the challenge.
  
  The film has very disturbing images of violence, and while it may not be as graphic as "Kill Bill" for example, the strength of the violence is in the lack of humanity that the character manifest. He is more than an ant in this world. He is the king.
  
  Stuart Gordon has managed to create a film that, while maybe it's not one of his best efforts it's very well done, has a VERY interesting story to tell, and manages to capture the attention every second of it.

简介:

  一面是万丈深渊,一面是悬崖绝壁,当她恢复知觉,发现自己身陷险境,生与死就在咫尺之间。是坐以待毙,还是绝地求生?她用残破的肢体摸索活下去的可能,但正在这样的绝境之中,岂料天公不作美,一场暴雨即将来临…… 本片由澳大利亚导演Tim Egan拍摄,从最初的概念到拍摄脚本,只花了8个小时的时间,短片剧本受到导演生命中两个关键时刻的启发——一次严重的车祸,以及和一个沮丧的朋友的交谈。“我依旧记得我的手指扣在湿漉漉的路面上的那种感觉。”当时他被撞倒在繁忙的交通中心的车道上,无助的躺在沥青柏油之间,随时可能被第二辆车碾过。 不可否认导演的亲身经历让他对死亡的恐惧,以及求生的本能都有了更真切的认识。本片的细节刻画相当出色,角色的每一个动作都生死攸关,而在共同承担这令人窒息的紧张氛围的同时,内心的强大在外部恶劣的条件下却又那样不堪一击。 Tim Egan凭借这部黑暗风格的极简主义短片,一举拿下2016纽约翠贝卡电影节(Tribeca Film Festival)官方选择奖、西班牙锡切斯奇幻电影节(Sitges Film Festival)最佳短片奖、美国奇幻电影节(Fantastic Fest)、法国PIFFF电影节金瞳奖、俄罗斯TIFF电影节最佳短片奖等众多奖项。
