The Defiler

2016 · 24 min

A short, hyper-stylised blast of splatter-punk mayhem that plays like a lost 80s video nasty with a punk-rock heart.

Overview: The Defiler is a fuck-yeah-tale of passion, mayhem, love and revenge, ode to 80’s action, italian ripp offs and b-sleaze set in the cinematic splatter-punk universe.
How it feels: Campy, dark, tense and absurd. Brisk and needs your attention.
About: Revenge, violence, obsession, love
Content: Strong violence, gore and language. Mild sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
