Must Love Death Shocks Berlin

Cinema Vault is a sales company that shows films in multiple genres. However, this company has a large catalogue of horror and thriller films. One of the highlights from the Cinema Vault horror category is Must Love Death, an Andreas Schaap production. The film takes on the serious subject matter of suicide and transforms the topic into a dark humoured comedy. Schapp's work on Must Love Death is described as "Schaap actually does an impressive job of running Norman's two storylines alongside each other [romance and horror]" (EfilmCritic). MLD will not be available for fans in large capacity for quite some time, as the film is currently being shopped at the European Film Market. Showings at the market begin February 12 at 6:40pm (Cinestar 5). More details on this project are below and hopefully a release date comes soon.

A synopsis for Must Love Death:

"After having his heartbroken one too many times, Norman loses hope in finding love and begins to spiral into a serious depression in which his only way out is to kill himself.

He soon meets a group of like-minded individuals and sets up a meeting with them in which they will all die together. When the day comes to take his own life, Norman finds that the group isn't suicidal, but instead they are serial killers with plans to torture and execute him on tape as part of a game show. The killers warped minds make a game out of killing each person and they seem to be getting away with murder until the tables are turned. As the bizarre game show continues on and Norman sees how crazy everyone around him is, he begins to appreciate his life on a whole new level and will do anything to survive and love again" (Cinema).
