What if a simple visit to the doctor became the ultimate showdown? DIRTY BILL OF HEALTH is an intriguing thriller with a hint of dark humor that follows a seemingly easy going WILLIAM, to his first check up. When the straight laced DR. SELAURS drops a series of odd questions and the ultimate test, the audience may ask who's really testing who. Nothing is what it seems with a Doctor versus Patient moment that flips the oath 'Do No Harm' upside down.

Hell Hath No Fury poster
3.3

HELL HATH NO FURY is the new film from Creepy Six Films (Vampires vs. Zombies; Human Nature), an independent horror film company based in Vancouver, B.C. Hell Hath No Fury is a balls-out horror anthology that is a bloody and erotic mix of stories in the style of the horror-lit anthologies. The Hot Blood Series and comedic horror shows like Tales form the Crypt. Spiced with liberal -and very gory- doses of wicked inspiration from classic revenge films like Ms. 45, I Spit on Your Grave, Irreversible, and Last House on the Left, Creepy Six Films' Hell Hath No Fury is a funny, sexy, gory, disturbing and exciting ride into an insanely twisted world where the women scorned exact their vengeance like never before.

While his lonely wife yearns for his touch, disturbed husband Harry (Donny James Lucas) shuns her advances and throws his energy into his unusual hobby: abducting beautiful women and torturing them in his garage. This terrifying gore fest directed by Vince D'Amato is twisted enough -- until you find out it's based on real events. (Then, it's even creepier.) The supporting cast includes Cynthia Potvin, Dana McLoughlin and Tamara Pender.
