Todesengel – The Hexecutioners (2015)

Todesengel – The Hexecutioners: Directed by Jesse Thomas Cook. With Liv Collins, Sarah Power, Timothy Burd, Tony Burgess. Two disparate young women working for a company that conducts euthanasia are dispatched to a remote estate to perform a custom assisted-suicide ritual, but unwittingly summon the wraiths of a Death Cult that once inhabited the property.

“The story centres on two young women recruited into a euthanasia company; Malison, (Liv Collins) a timid girl who does it because she needs the money; and Olivia, a cynical street-wise woman who, well, just does it. The job in hand just happens to be at the usual creepy Gothic mansion, overseen by the usual creepy keeper, Edgar, (Tim Burd) who instructs the women that the death must be carried out to a strict ritual.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt should be said that there is no problem with the acting which is superb, even by the minor characters, but some of the CGI is not so good and then there is the supernatural element when faceless figures appear and then there is the little girl. Also, some things do not add up. For instance, rooms which are pitch black suddenly have lots of lit candles – how does that happen? The ending, for me anyway, did not make much sense, but by then I was losing interest. A pity because it could have been different.”
