Out on a dead calm ocean, in a thick fog, a group of tourists on a pleasure craft are about to cross paths with an ancient and terrible evil. Sharing the same ocean, a sick, dying old Greek man drifts alone on a stricken yacht. The Greek has been cheating death for countless years, trading broken bodies for new ones using a secret, deadly weapon. But now is the time of reckoning. The Ferryman, the ancient conveyor of death, is close — and he wants the Greek. There is a payment to be made.

The Killing Floor: Horror or thriller?

Thriller. Honestly, I would not discuss this film in a supernatural horror blog today; I must have gotten carried away.

This piece was apparently marketed as a horror film, so I just want to make things clear at the start that what we’re dealing with here is a thriller; some would say a mystery thriller, and some would say a Hitchcockian thriller. They’re both right, but a pure horror it is not. However, don’t let that put you off, because The Killing Floor actually has a few interesting scenes in store for the willing viewer.

Plot summary: The Killing Floor (2007)

Fiction becomes fact as the agent of a horror novelist moves into a new apartment where spooky events besiege him in The Killing Floor. Marc Blucas stars as the agent who receives videotapes of himself in the mail, fears someone is watching him, and ultimately falls apart as his paranoia gets the better of him.
