Cabin by the Lake
Directed by Leong Po-Chih
Produced by Great Falls Productions, Original Film
A deeply disturbing serial killer thriller that uses the conceit of a screenwriter blurring fiction and reality to explore the psychology of predation and the horror of systematic murder.
A screenwriter does research for his new script by actually kidnapping and drowning young girls. He then places them in his "garden" of other dead girls coming back daily to check on them. One girl narrowly escapes and the other bodies are found leading to an ingenious plot to try and capture the killer.
