They say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger… but that may not be the case for Brian as he deals with his mental demons in the upcoming psychological horror film Killer Therapy. The film was written and directed by Barry Jay, founder of the world-renowned Barry’s Bootcamp. The trailer for Killer Therapy has been released and may we say it is a doozy. There is a whole lot of dysfunction to unpack here. So pull out your legal pad, have a seat on the couch and get ready to try and determine if evil is born or if it is made.
Synopsis: Brian is a disturbed child with sociopathic tendencies dealing with a father who doesn’t love him, a mother unconvinced of his violent nature, and a newly adopted sister he believes is there to replace him. After a series of escalating violent incidents, he is bounced around from failed therapist to failed therapist, maturing into a young man still unable to escape his anger issues. When his life eventually falls apart by his own choices, Brian blames his series of failed therapists, embracing his dark nature and taking his revenge on everyone who ever wronged him – one by one, finally understanding that accepting who you are inside can be the best therapy.
The trailer is dynamic and attention-grabbing. Based on the small cuts available, this talented group of veteran horror actors will undoubtedly deliver a riveting performance from start to finish. The best element of this trailer is the question it raises. the entire time you are wondering if Brian was evil from the start or if society has failed him in such a way that paved the way for evil and sociopathic behavior to thrive.
Killer Therapy stars Thom Mathews (Return of the Living Dead), PJ Soles (Halloween), Adrienne King (Friday the 13th), Daeg Faerch (Rob Zombie’s Halloween), Michael Qeliqi, Elizabeth Keener, and Ivy George. This film had major buzz surrounding it at the American Film Market and the film is Jay’s follow-up film to the well received film Ashes. So is evil born or is it made? Either way it looks like the only solution is a little Killer Therapy.
