Need a man who can convincingly play a badass overlord that controls a series of modern-day gladiatorial games while twin ladies see to his every need? Then you absolutely, positively got to call Samuel L Motherf****n’ Jackson.

That’s what first-time director Jonah Loop has done for Deathgames, as he segues from working as a visual effects supervisor to taking on his first film, according to the Heat Vision Blog.
