Directed by Ben Burghart and Jacob Burghart and co-written
with Josh Doke, Head Count stars Aaron Jakubenko as a chain gang escapee who finds his own gun
pointed at his head. The film takes the form of flashbacks as he tries to
remember just how many bullets he fired and whether the gun is empty or
not.
Ryan Kwanten and Melanie Zanetti also star.
Head Count is on UK/ROI VOD from February 19th.
Check out the UK trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
A gun is pointed to Kat’s head. It’s his gun. Or at least it was after he escaped a chain gang and stole it. Luckily for him though, it’s not fully loaded. But how many bullets are left? He can’t quite remember. And now, with an unknown assailant pulling the trigger, Kat is forced to recall exactly what happened to each bullet.
While the empty rounds click away, memories of wild animal attacks, run-ins with an impulsive police officer, a down-to-earth arms dealer, and his ex-lover come flooding back. As the pressure mounts, Kat must figure out how many rounds are left and try to devise a plan to escape... one more time.
