Exclusive ‘Bad Samaritan’ Clip Stumbles Across a “Murder Room”
Dean Devlin directs Bad Samaritan, which reminds me of Don’t Breathe in the sense of putting the film’s burglars in peril when they enter a house with an unexpected host.
In the film, a pair of burglars stumbles upon a woman being held captive in a home they intended to rob.
David Tennant, Kerry Condon, and Robert Sheehan star in the film that will be arriving in theaters May 4th.
“A valet (Sheehan) develops a clever scam to burglarize the houses of rich customers. Things go smoothly until he robs the wrong customer (Tennant), and discovers a woman being held captive in his home. Afraid of going to prison, he leaves the woman there and makes a call to the police, who find nothing when they investigate. Now, the valet must endure the wrath of the kidnapper who seeks revenge on him, all while desperately trying to find and rescue the captive woman he left behind.”
