Sam Curtain has been called by some “the next master of Australian horror”. That’s why his new work Beaten to Death (2022) is generating so much expectation due to its upcoming theatrical release this weekend. The movie tells the story of Jack whose desperate choice leads him down a path that leaves him beaten and bruised.
The movie unfolds after a desperate choice leads a man named Jack down a path that leaves him beaten and bruised as he struggles against man, nature, and his own insanity. Stranded in the middle of nowhere after barely surviving a horrific assault, Jack encounters one local after another and quickly learns that a sick game of cat and mouse is about to begin. Battling the deranged country psychos and the harsh landscape, Jack must go to extreme lengths to survive.
