Panther Ridge - Extreme Horror Short

By Jack for Reviews

With absolutely no budget, this extreme shock value horror short depicts the immense possibilities of the BDSM scene when power gets to the dominants head, full of wonderful blood and guts, Panther Ridge shows just how far people can go to satisfy their own twisted sense of pleasure.

With only just over 6 minutes of run time, you are easily able to experience the ride of succumbing to immense pressure from your peers, see how desperate people can get when facing the fear of pain and death and just how quickly things can escalate when put into the wrong hands.

Panther Ridge started as a simple 30 page script in the director’s screenwriting class at the University of Toledo, 2 years after the script was written in 2015 and only 1 weekend of shooting, a gripping video was produced. This short is a mix of a few scenes from a full-feature version that will be coming out in the next few years.
