Get twice the mayhem in previews for the first movies in a planned series.
German filmmaker Timo Rose (UNRATED: THE MOVIE, BARRICADE) gave us the first look at the blood-soaked trailers for GAME OF DEATH CHAPTER 1: THE SIX DOORS TO HELL (which we first told you about here) and DARK SECRETS: GAME OF DEATH CHAPTER 2 (previously reported on here). The first film stars David Ruessel, Deena Unverzagt, Yanlong Li, Irene Miracle (Dario Argento’s INFERNO), Carlos Nikolai Campana and Richard Norton, and the second toplines Maya Trojanowski, Ruessel, Lewis Santer, Dana Mae, Shehzad Bulut, Konstantin Korovilas and Nadja Gallera, and with a special appearance by THE THING’s Norbert Weisser.
The synopsis for CHAPTER 1: “Set in a bleak future where the world suffocates under the iron fist of a tyrannical regime, Ken Shiro—driven by unyielding determination—embarks on a perilous mission to locate the gate to Hell and rescue his daughter from the Inferno.” The synopsis for CHAPTER 2: “Serving as both a sequel and a prequel, the narrative follows parallel storylines that inexorably converge, exposing hidden truths, long-buried choices, and the forces that set the apocalypse in motion. As past and future collide, so do two worlds—human and infernal—culminating in a brutal, unavoidable bloodbath that reshapes everything left standing.”
Both movies will be released in Japan and Europe this summer, with U.S. distribution info to be announced soon. A third installment, BLOODLINE: GAME OF DEATH CHAPTER 3, is currently in preproduction; casting is currently underway, with shooting scheduled to begin in July.
