One drama broke through Sundance 2008 as both a critical favourite and genuine commercial prospect — but wouldn’t you know it, there’s been no theatrical release.
It’s Donkey Punch, a thriller named for the dangerous sexual practice that puts seven young men and women in terrible danger on the Mediterranean Sea.
After the 20-something partygoers meet during a vacation at the Spanish seaside, they decide to move the action to a convenient yacht for uninhibited enjoyment of booze, drugs and sex. That’s when the fun turns to horror.
It’s the debut feature by Olly Blackburn, an award-winning London screenwriter and director of commercials and videos.
Fans of thriller films should put Donkey Punch on their must-see list.
