Aprašymas

Los Angeles is a city built on desire, and on the lies people tell themselves to survive it.

In Burning Palms, five interlocking stories unfold across the sun-bleached sprawl of the city, each one probing a different taboo, each one drifting deeper into moral freefall.

A father's bond with his precocious daughter curdles into something unrecognizable. A woman's romantic devotion is dismantled by a single request in the bedroom. A privileged couple imports a human life as casually as a fashion accessory. A group of unsupervised boys invents games no one should play. A lonely woman confronts her attacker¿ and asks for something unthinkable.

Adapted by acclaimed transgressive horror author Jess Hagemann, this official novelization plunges far beyond the limits of the original film, expanding its darkest moments with uncompromising psychological intensity. With the full cooperation and creative input of writer/director Christopher Landon (Disturbia, Paranormal Activity 2, Happy Death Day), the story expands into unflinching territory, charting the psychological devastation of lives driven by appetite, impulse, and need.
