Der Todesking
Available on Prime Video, iTunes
As a chain letter from the self-proclaimed "Brotherhood of the 7th Day" circulates encouraging its recipients to end their lives, a series of grim murder-suicides unfold. In one vignette, a young woman massacres a room of concert-goers before turning the gun on herself; in another, a man, driven to madness by some unspecified mental disturbance, repeatedly slams his head into a wall before collapsing in a pool of his own blood... These are just some of depictions of death and despair that make up the tortured fabric of Der Todesking.
