WOULD YOU RATHER?  YES, I WOULD.

 

Would You Rather? starring Brittany Snow and a horror short called The Beast from Dream Seekers Productions are my choices this week.

First up is Would You Rather  released on DVD July 9, 2013. I have been thinking about renting this movie for several months and am glad I finally did. The plot revolves around Iris, a young lady who has lost her parents and is left with a sickly brother to care for. Iris has quite the dilemma because she has been left with her deceased parent’s debts and her younger brother’s medical bills and no source of income. Then she receives an offer she cannot refuse that will solve all her financial woes but at a price, of course. Nothing in life is free. Would You Rather? did remind me to some degree of Saw but with its own twists and turns. I found it had originality, moderate gore, and it made me think. What would happen to your moral compass if you were in a dire financial situation? It was absolutely worth the $3.99 I paid to stream it on Amazon.

 

LITTLE MISS HORROR NERD’S RATING: 4/5

I also watched a short called The Beast  this week from Dream Seekers Productions. This 12 minute movie was about a father who has a werewolf for a son and is not sure what to do about it. I was pleasantly surprised at the production value of this short on what must have been an almost non existent budget. I have seen full length low budget horror movies that did not look or sound as good. I also enjoyed the retro vibe that seemed to be a throw back to the Wolfman movies of the 1940s.
