Neo-Western Thriller Head Count Opens in Theaters and On-Demand
Television/Streaming Premiere, U.S. Theatrical Releases | Sep 29, 2023
A gun is pointed to Kat’s (Aaron Jakubenko; The Shannara Chronicles, Tidelands) 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 (Ryan Kwanten; True Blood, The Oath), a down-to-earth arms dealer, and his ex-lover (Melanie Zanetti; Raven’s Hollow, Bluey) 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.
Directed by Jacob and Ben Burghart, Head Count also stars Chris Bylsma (El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie, Godless), Addam Bramich (Poker Face), Polaris Banks (Reclad), and Cinnamon Shultz (Winter’s Bone).
