Title: Jug Face
Starring:
Sean Bridges (Who?)
Lauren Ashley Carter (Who?)
Sean Young (Wh- Oh, I remember her!)
A story about a moonshine drinkin’, ho downin’, paw lovin’ community living in the woods.
This ain’t no ordinary moonshine drinkin’, ho downin’, paw lovin’ community though.
This particular clan worships a hole in the ground.
Apparently at random times, one of their guys gets possessed and makes a clay jug with a face carved on it.
That face resembles one of the community.
They all gather round the hole in the ground, unveil the jug face (Geddit? That’s the title of the flicka pitcha, Paw!), and the person that it looks like promptly gives themselves over to have their throat cut and their blood to pour into the hole and satisfy the spirit of the Pit until next time.
Our main character then comes along, and after being told she is to be “joined” with one of her family’s neighbours so she can get to the very important job of pumping out a bunch of kidlets, she discovers that she is going to be the next to be sacrificed to the Pit.
Now you think that this would be the perfect excuse to get out of an arranged marriage, being killed and all, but she also discovers she’s pregnant. To her brother, don’t you know.
This prompts her to hide the jug face in the woods without anyone knowing it was her that was to be the next sacrifice.
This of course, angers the hole.
Nothing no good ever comes from pissing off a hole in the ground.
The angry Pit releases its spirit to go and regularly kill off the community one by one.
Problem solved for our heroine, right?
Nooo… Apparently she gets the guilt trips about the people trying to kill her getting killed, and gives herself up to them.
Does the Pit exact its revenge on our heroine?
Does it continue to kill off the community?
Do they finally recognise the functions of a shovel, thereby trapping the big bad spirit underground forevermore, allowing them to carry on their moonshine drinkin’, ho downin’, paw (and brother) lovin’ ways?
Rather than give up a spoiler about the ending, I’m going to leave it there (I also fell asleep, so have no idea how it ended).
The Pit gets what the Pit wants, and the Pit wants gerbils.
Two of them, to be exact.
