Movie Reviews of Death Game
Movie Review: Every man's fantasy: to be talked to death?
Summary: 2 Stars
In 'Death Game' Locke and Camp play a pair of women who essentially seek thrills without concern for others. As a matter of fact the more they can torture someone the more enjoyment they get from it. With a premise like this you would certainly hope they would get more mileage from it, but alas, the biggest threat they pose to their married man they have imprisoned in his own home is talking him to death. Locke and Camp are effective in their roles and can certainly turn on the sex appeal while being so menacing that you would not want to get near them. They have plenty of dialogue (too much) and a director who likes to linger on scenes too long. This comes off rather like a stage play on film. There is of course the payoff scene of Locke and Camp in a bath together which should wake you up at that point. I will not give it away, but the final scene involving the van is well shot. I watched this scene several times in slow motion and it was still effective. Overall 'Death Game' is a film with a lot of talk and a lot of tease with very little payoff considering the potential they had with the subject matter.-Bob
