Story Game, a Screambox Exclusive, is a frightening anthology that blurs the lines between reality and fantasy. On a camping trip in Hawaii, three fine art students make a bet: who can tell the best supernatural story? According to the rules, each tale must have three items: a metaphysical piece, a character with green eyes, and a Japan location. The three young campers try to outwit each other, as they bring three famous Japanese ghost stories to the world, and things take an eerie turn as each tale takes them deeper into the Story Game. The film stars Greer Grammar (Ted Bundy: American Boogeyman, Deadly Illusions), Alberto Rosende (Chicago Fire, Shadowhunters), Ayumi Ito (Tokyo Vice) and Lyrica Okano (Marvel’s Runaways).
Written and directed by Jason K. Lau (The Tempest, Terrace House: Aloha State), Story Game was shot on location in Hawaii and Japan. The film was produced by John C. Ching, Deborah Y. Lau and Nicole M. Lau, with Jason K. Lau also acting as Executive Producer.
