There's a downloadable trailer for Simon Hynd's Senseless on the website of international sales agent Shoreline Entertainment Inc.. Also, ScreenAnarchy - in association with GOMORRAHY.com - is now providing a set of seven vidcaps from that trailer.

The screenplay for Senseless was written by Hynd, based on the eponymous novel by Stona Fitch. The movie apparently stars Jason Behr, Emma Catherwood, Joe Ferrara (a.k.a. Joe Ferrera), Lucy Liemann, Tam Dean Burn, and Toby Marlow.

Here's a synopsis for Senseless from the website of production company Matador Pictures LLP: "'Senseless' unfolds as an affluent business man (Jason Behr) finds himself the unwilling hostage to political extremists who brutally torture him for acts he has no recollection of ever committing. ¶ Audiences of blood-thirsty home viewers fixate on their computer screens as his torment is streamed across the internet and delivers the most graphic and disturbing reality show ever to be broadcast."

Here's a synopsis (capitalization added) for Senseless from the website of Hynd's Simple Films: "Eliott Gast, an American economist, is abducted in Europe by a shadowy anti-globalisation group. Eliott spends forty days held hostage, each moment broadcast on the internet via dozens of cameras. His captors inform him that his eventual release depends on donations made to their cause by the millions of people watching. His mind racing, Eliott tries to understand why he is there, unearthing sins both small and large. Over the course of his captivity Eliott is deprived of his senses, one by one. His crime, his captors insist, demands justice."

Here's a description of Senseless from Shoreline Entertainment's site: "Elliot Gast was cruising on the road to success, until he became violently overturned by a group of political extremists and brutally tortured for acts he wasn't even aware that he had committed. Now, as his torment is streamed across the net as the most graphic and disturbing reality show yet, Elliott has nothing left but the will to fight back against the evils and try to plead to the masses as they safely watch from the other side of their computer screens. In this intense thriller where desperation and pain become the new currency, we expose a raw view of commercialism, capitalism, and the American Dream according to the new order of radical extremists."
