Hung Jury

An unemployed and drug addled loner is sentenced to death for robbing and drowning an innocent girl in 1974. During his execution, he vows revenge on the judge, jury, and prosecutor who convicted him. 20 years later, two actresses are hired by a mysterious benefactor to charter a yacht full of strangers and travel to a remote island locale for a murder mystery weekend. The guests soon realize that the murders are no performance, as a mysterious killer begins dispatching each patron on the island one by one using a variety of gory and gruesome methods.

Undoubtedly the most elaborate, SOV passion project from director Gary Whitson and his New Jersey based company W.A.V.E. Productions, Hung Jury is a mind melting, 1994 island set whodunnit slasher epic of mammoth proportions boasting a huge (mostly non-thespian) principal cast, underwater videography, and exotic yacht and beachfront locations. Featuring performances by Tina Krause (Limbo), Dave Castiglione (Backwoods Marcy), Clancy McCauley (Dead North), and Michelle Caporaletti (Bloody Creek), Hung Jury weaves a perplexing revenge slasher plot together with some of the most over the top kills in W.A.V.E. history; including barn door crucifixion, bludgeoning by dismembered arm, and the most astonishing post-coital weightlifting axe massacre in cinema history!
