KILL YOUR NEIGHBORS!

KILL YOUR NEIGHBORS!
By Andrey Shvidko

GENRE: Drama, Thriller / Suspense
LOGLINE:

Kill your neighbor as soon as he opens the door! And then run from the cop!

SYNOPSIS:

An unknown character must ascend a derelict, filthy apartment building, forcing a path past the onslaught of crazed residents on every floor: a crazed old man with a chainsaw, a frantic woman with a frying pan, and an armed police officer. Danger and death lurk behind every closed door. This deadly, floor-by-floor combat rages on until the sudden, shocking realization: GAME OVER. The carnage is revealed to be a violent video game played by a young boy. But the cycle of cruelty isn't confined to the screen. Following the law of the boomerang, death reaches out of the game and strikes the developer himself—the boy’s older brother.

KILL YOUR NEIGHBORS is a relentless exploration of the closed loop of violence: adults create brutal games, children play them, and those children, upon growing up, create a brutal world. The cycle is sealed.
