In Burning Palms, five interlocking stories unfold across the sun-bleached sprawl of the city, each one probing a different taboo, each one drifting deeper into moral freefall.
A father's bond with his precocious daughter curdles into something problematic.
A woman's romantic devotion is dismantled by a single request in the bedroom.
A privileged couple imports a human life as casually as a fashion accessory.
A group of unsupervised boys invents games no one should play.
A lonely woman confronts her attacker, and asks for something unthinkable.
Adapted by acclaimed transgressive horror author Jess Hagemann (Headcheese, Mother-Eating), this official novelization captures the acerbic satire of the original film, balancing its darkest moments with an uncomfortable familiarity.
With the creative input of writer/director Christopher Landon (Disturbia, Paranormal Activity 2, Happy Death Day), the story expands into unflinching territory, charting the psychological devastation of lives ruled by appetite, and impulse.
