Play Dead, Inc. (1998)
Dawn Murphy and Debbie D star as two ex-hookers, Paula and Debbie, who are now actresses appearing in “fantasy murder movies” for the home video market. Jack Tillman (GW Lawrence) is the owner of Play Dead, Inc., the video production company producing these tapes. But Jack is in debt to his bookies for $50,000 and the only way to raise the money and to save his own life, is to produce a “real snuff” movie with Paula and Debbie as the “stars”. Will Jack succumb to the pressure after an innocent actress is “accidentally” killed on the set?
