A new episode of our Best Horror Party Movies video series has just been released, and with this one we’re looking back at director James Wan’s 2007 revenge thriller Death Sentence (watch it Here). Now, you may be wondering, “How can this be a party movie when it’s incredibly depressing?” Well, to find out how we party to this movie, check out the video embedded above!
Directed by James Wan from a screenplay by Ian Mackenzie Jeffers that was based on a novel by Death Wish author Brian Garfield, Death Sentence has the following synopsis: Nick Hume is on his way home from a hockey game with his son, Brendan, and stops for gasoline. Helplessly he sees a street thug kill Brendan while robbing the station. Believing the justice system will fail him, Nick goes after the killer himself, setting off a war between him and the killer’s older brother.

Now you can play everyone's favorite party game ... without using your brain.
Well, sort of. In another example of how a computer is only as smart as its creator (or something), the new Google search tool that allows you to calculate any actor's "Bacon Number" — the number of degrees he or she is removed from a Kevin Bacon movie — doesn't (yet) beat good old-fashioned human memory.
The limitations of the program were discovered by some of the staff of New York Magazine, who started using the tool to find the number of degrees certain political figures were to Kevin Bacon (hey, why not?). They became concerned when the search for Patrick Leahy's Bacon Number turned up empty — which makes no sense, as the longtime Vermont senator raised the Joker's ire in "The Dark Knight" ("You remind me of my father ...") and even showed up again in "The Dark Knight Rises.
