Toronto After Dark 2009 – Legend of the 7 Bloody Torturers (Short)

August 25, 2009

in reviews

Legend of the 7 Bloody Torturers is part of the Toronto After Dark Canadian Short Film Showcase. It played before Must Love Death.

Legend of the 7 Bloody Torturers is a hilarious short about the bureaucracy involved in torture. I mean, those torturers are really busy, right? But what happens when the guy from head office discovers that there are only 6 torturers? Will the result be surprising or really just what you expect?

Lot7BT is a brilliant little award winning short from the mind of Connal Pendergast who seems to have a bright future ahead of him. The short itself is very well done and has an innovative take on torture, which is something we generally see only the gory, cringe and squirm-worthy side of in horror. Also, I really think that this is exactly the kind of red tape that torturers would have had to deal with.

Official website here and Connal’s site here. Catch this one if you can, although I’m sure we’ll see much more from Connal and his very talented crew.
