Review of Blood

Blood (2004)
6/10
limited 2 person play with Hampshire showing some power
4 September 2015
Noelle Terry (Emily Hampshire) is a desperate junkie. She hasn't seen her brother Chris Terry (Jacob Tierney) for 5 years. Chris visits her in Montréal. She demands $300 from him. Then she tells him that a man is going to pay $500 to have a threesome with them. Chris is a recovering alcoholic and starting his theology studies. Chris has sexual feelings for his sister and she is willing to push all of his buttons.

This is a simple 2 person play in mainly one room. The movie tries a few things like split screens to keep it interesting. There isn't much of a plot. These are two characters clashing in more and more destructive ways. Tierney is pretty good but Hampshire is the real force. In the end, this is a movie with limited scope but Hampshire shows some power.
