Chukiat Sakveerakul writes and directs this Thai suspense thriller. Pusit (Krissada Terrence) is having the worst day of his life: he has lost his job, his home and his girlfriend. When he gets a mysterious phone call telling him that he has won the right to become a contestant on a game show offering huge cash prizes, Pusit agrees to play. He is told he must complete 13 tasks, and will be paid a sum of money after each one - but if he fails any task he has to repay all the money. At first the tasks are simple, but as they go on they become increasingly horrific and depraved, leaving Pusit with nowhere left to turn.

Most helpful review 13 Game of Death

some copied ideas but relatively watchable

By a customer from uk , 26 Feb 2011

[Highly rated reviewer]

This is a strange film although not rubbish it does have splashes of ham acting through it. Pretty watchable though. Almost like a mixture of Saw meets Fear Dot Com. It has some cringe-worthy moments & is genuinly worth seeing although alot of the ideas and effects have been borrowed from other films.

starts off ok....

By Tazminola (37 reviews) from London , 13 May 2013

This film has the basis of a very good storyline but is very drawn out. Starts off promising then, started losing interest and got fidgety. Watched to the end and didn't wish I'd turned it off but not as good as expected.

I thought this was a brilliant film. Good twist kept me interested all the way through. Funny in parts. Good idea and nicely executed.

Good start,then downhill.

By Danishpenguin2 (3 reviews) , 10 Apr 2013

More Science fiction than thriller,and (unintentionally) funny in places. The more the explanation unwound towards the end the less interested I became. Pretty ludicrous imo,but not entirely for the bin.
