Death-Scort Service is a 2015 independent horror film that was directed by Sean Donohue, who co-wrote the script with Chris Woods. [1] Funding for the movie was partially raised through an Indiegogo campaign and Death-Scourt Service released on October 13, 2015. [2]
The film follows a group of prostitutes working in Las Vegas that become the focus of a serial killer intent on brutally murdering them all.
Shock Till You Drop criticized the film for its poor acting and plot, but also remarked that it also "functions primarily as an attempt to keep the carnival-scumbag vibe of vintage H.G. Lewis, David Friedman and Doris Wishman alive and well" and that appreciated these aspects of Death-Scourt Service. [3] HorrorNews.net wrote a mostly favorable review for the movie, stating "At the end of the day, there's absolutely nothing about Death-Scort Service that's subtle; it hits you repeatedly about the head and neck until the final credits roll. Sometimes it's with nudity, sometimes it's with violence. Occasionally, you get both. Again, that's definitely not a complaint. I found myself enjoying the flick even when I felt dirty, which, I guess, is a compliment. Donohue and company know their audience is filled with filthy freaks, and they're more than happy to supply our demand." [4]
