October Horror Challenge - Sadistic Intentions (2019)

  

Synopsis
A psychotic drug dealer lure one of his customers and a bandmate to a secluded mansion for a mad ritual performance.

Review
I've wanted to watch this one for a while. I love Jeremy Gardner (Stu, the bandmate). His flick After Midnight, is one of my top 10 favorite movies of all time. The performances in this one are solid. Stu and Chloe, played by Taylor Zaudtke, have fantastic chemistry. Michael Patrick Nicholson, the psychotic drug dealer, chews scenery in all the right ways. This film has some excellent shots and a great score/soundtrack. In ways it feels like two movies. The first half of the flick focuses on the mystery and interactions between Chloe and Stu. The latter half of the film is balls to the wall crazy. The ending is quite cathartic. Overall I enjoyed this one, but not sure it was what I was expecting. 

In Your Game
The antagonist(s) of this flick aren't exactly expert killers. My recent Frendo stats are appropriate.
