Sex And Death 101
Directed by Daniel Waters and starring Simon Baker in the main role, the Sex and Death movie releases on DVD this month. The film is a combination of different genres; romantic comedy, fantasy and dark humor.
Sex and Death revolves around the life of Roderick Blank who is ready to get married. However, Blank’s life turns upside down when he receives a mysterious email listing 72 names of all the women he has had sex with in the past and will have in the future. The email includes all their names with the exception of his wife-to-be. Blank’s situation gets worse when he meets Death Nell (Winona Ryder) at the end of the movie.
Cinematical reports that Nell changes Blank’s life; “she puts all violent men into comas for their sins.”
Waters dives into all the possibilities your sex-crazed mind could create, but the “high concept” plot isn’t enough for the filmmaker. We’re also treated to a darkly amusing subplot about a female serial killer called Death Nell (Winona Ryder) who exacts a lot of revenge on some of the sleazier men of the city. Of course the two plotlines converge, quite satisfyingly I might add, during a third act plot twist.
According to Dance with Shadows, the other stars who are featured in this movie are Julie Bowen and Dash Mihok.
The other members of the cast are Julie Bowen (Boston Legal) who plays No.29 on Baker’s list of conquests and Dash Mihok (Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang) who plays Lester, one of Baker’s best buds. The movie will be “hard R” for nudity.
Sex and Death movie promises to bring fun and laughter to its viewers.
