Plot
[edit] | This article needs an improved plot summary. (May 2018) |
Jenny, an ambitious, feisty advertising executive was kidnapped by a clown after having her drink spiked in a bar, and is raped by a clown. After taking six months off work, she comes back to work again when she decides to spend the night in the office block due to a deadline to meet when she is terrorised by the same clown who raped her six months ago.
Production
[edit]The film received mainstream attention after its star Jessica Cunningham participated in The Apprentice in late 2016.[2] The media expressed incredulity that Cunningham had been involved in the film.[3][4]
Cunningham was six months pregnant when she filmed scenes of being raped, as well as a shower scene in which she appears nude. She additionally had to perform scenes in which she is tied up and has her mouth gagged.[citation needed]
