Valley of the Rats
In the valley of the rats there is no chair for the lords of the earth.
2016 · 77 min · Horror, Crime, Drama
A young man is accused of his ex-girlfriend's murder. Before he is formally charged by the police, he sets out on a two-day odyssey to find the real killer: tracking down his leads from the backseat of a rented limousine. This allows him to converse and ponder class, society, life in the city, and to contemplate the dirt that runs in the small nooks and valleys of cosmopolitan life. Mid-way through the film, the style transforms into Brividio Giallo contemporary, wordless operatic imagery of sex and violence.

MovieHorror
HELL HATH NO FURY is the new film from Creepy Six Films (Vampires vs. Zombies; Human Nature), an independent horror film company based in Vancouver, B.C. Hell Hath No Fury is a balls-out horror anthology that is a bloody and erotic mix of stories in the style of the horror-lit anthologies. The Hot Blood Series and comedic horror shows like Tales form the Crypt. Spiced with liberal -and very gory- doses of wicked inspiration from classic revenge films like Ms. 45, I Spit on Your Grave, Irreversible, and Last House on the Left, Creepy Six Films' Hell Hath No Fury is a funny, sexy, gory, disturbing and exciting ride into an insanely twisted world where the women scorned exact their vengeance like never before.

MovieHorrorCrime
The next experience in experimental giallo & film noir, inspired by the sensual and violent world of the Italian giallo film, Glass tells the tale of a young Canadian couple, Mike and Zarana, who decide to cut themselves off from social media and remain in their glass-walled apartment overlooking the waters running through their city. Anxiety, paranoia, violence, and murder follows. Sex, conspiracy and violence explode in GLASS, the second instalment of Vince D'Amato's neo-giallo series. Tirra Dent plays Zarana, a woman consumed by paranoia and rabid nightmares after she finds herself relentlessly stalked by the enigmatic killer. Set in the "glass jungle" of Vancouver's gentrified neighbourhoods, Glass is a scathing critique of social media and the society of middle and lower classes.
