In ‘Triggered’ nine friends, all harboring a dark secret, go camping in the woods. After a wild night of partying, they wake up with SUICIDE BOMBS strapped to their chests, all with varying times on their countdown clocks. They decide to work out how to disarm the bombs or find help – until they discover they can ‘take’ one another’s time by killing each other.
Sound familiar? I could easily see this being a scene in any ‘Saw’ film but stretched out into an entire film.
“I set out to make a film that I would watch as a teenager. I didn’t want something seriousor heavy handed. I wanted to make a fun as hell midnight movie that riffs on the “BattleRoyale” genre, and the types of kill game films that came before—SAW meets AmericanPie. I thought it would be hilarious to see sensitive, woke,SJW millennials being throwninto a grizzly death match, where they are more concerned about their own superficialfeelings than the game that their tormentor wants to play.” said director Alastair Orr.
‘Triggered’ will be On-Demand and Digital November 6, 2020.
