Death is the New Porn
by Jack Elliot 

‘It doesn’t matter how we do it, we’re always going to end up with the same result.’
​
Death is the New Porn follows Tom, Nina and Michael; three Edinburgh vigilantes who crave the thrill of murder to avenge victims of brutal crimes. That is, until Lydia, Tom’s mother, shows up asking unwanted questions about the murder of her brother. This coupled with Sheila’s (Michael’s abusive mother) release from prison makes them question the morality of vigilantism. Cracks begin to show dividing them and audiences alike. Can two wrongs make a right? Meet Edinburgh. See the thorns beneath the rose. Meet the gang.
