Seven teenagers discover a board game decorated with plastic skulls with wry smiles. When they begin to play, a race against the clock ensues and forces them to kill someone one at a time. Those that don’t manage to do so at the end of the countdown realise that their head will literally explode. This game will reveal their survival instinct but are they going to kill innocent people from the next village or end up killing each other? At any rate, only one rule counts in this game: kill or be killed.
Initially conceived as an eight-episode mini-series, the blood-splatter film Game of Death is a cross between Jumanji and Battle Royale and very much an explosive work!
