Guest Ruin - 13: Game of Death

Welcome to Saw, Thai style.

13: Game of Death is about a down on his luck salesmen and all around pussy.

Chit, as he is affectionately called, has just lost his car to repossession,
his girlfriend to some oriental greaser, and his job due to slumping sales.
Upon losing his job he receives a strange call on his cell phone informing him
that he has just been selected to be a contestant on a secret game show called 13.
His objective, to complete 13 challenges as directed without telling anyone
that he is playing the game. His prize, 100 million Thai Baht which works out to
roughly 3 million American Dollars. Not bad scrilla for a day's work, even when
the current exchange rate is taken into account.

Chit accepts the offer and begins a series of tasks. First task, kill a fly.
Second task, eat it. This immediately draws the curiosity of a female friend,
ex co-worker and computer nerd Tawng who Chit may or may not want
to throw his cock into. From there the challenges start to increase in difficulty.
They range from eating shit (challenge 3) to carrying a waterlogged corpse up a
well on his back like a papoose (challenge 6) to killing Tawng's purse dog with a sword (challenge 12).

The entire film is interspersed with "You Bet Your Life"
style flashbacks of a troubled childhood. It is revealed that Chit is half Taiwanese,
half abusive drunken Irish Catholic coal miner. The flashbacks reveal a botched attempt to
kill his father with a butcher knife when he was ten.

Challenge 13 culminates on a grand stage where Chit comes upon an individual in a
wheel chair with a burlap sack on his head. Pulling the sack off reveals the person in the
wheelchair is his father who has apparently been sedated. The final challenge is to stick a butcher knife into his father's heart and terminate him. Chit, being the pussy he is, chickens out seemingly forefieting the 100 million Baht. Flash to a scene where Tawng, using her computer expertise and Google, finds out that this game goes all the way to the top of this developing-world nation's system of authority. She then infiltrates the lair of the mastermind behind the game show, a 12 year old internet savvy boy. Tawng is forced to watch the conclusion of the show in which Chit's father springs out of the wheelchair and plunges the butcher knife into his son's chest. It is revealed that Chit's father is also playing the game. His father throws his arms in the air in celebration while being showered with confetti. Game over.
