“Till Death – Until your death do us part” is a hard-hitting and amazingly brutal survival thriller that earned the FSK its blood-red “18+” seal. According to the mostly positive US reviews (“90% fresh” on Rotten Tomatoes!), SK Dale’s feature film directorial debut not only demands a lot from leading actress Megan Fox physically. The ripper would also give her the chance to prove herself as an amazingly multifaceted mimin.
How well Fox masters these acting challenges can now be checked for the first time as part of a streaming subscription. Then “Till Death” just debuted in the program of WOW (formerly Sky-Ticket).

The fall from superstar to almost nobody happened very quickly for Megan Fox. Just a moment ago she was the great human attraction in the “Transformers“ blockbusters. She also became the number one poster girl on the walls of millions of teenage boys around the world. After a public argument with director Michael Bay, the actress was suddenly a kind of “persona non grata” in Hollywood.
For a while, she had to make ends meet with rather awkward cameo appearances (“The Dictator”), supporting parts in comedies (“Immer Trouble with 40”) and guest roles in TV series (“New Girl”). After the big comeback attempt with “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ (including reconciliation with Bay, who produced the flick) failed, she decided to take care of her three young sons full-time for the time being.
Then a few years ago, Fox returned to the spotlight. However, not in blockbusters, but mainly in indie thrillers, with which she was able to land some respectable successes. Some of the most popular of these projects include the mercenary actioner Rogue Hunter, Midnight In The Switchgrass with her partner, rapper Machine Gun Kelly and Bruce Willis, and the South Korean war film Battalion of the Damned. Before she shot “Expendables 4” with Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham and Dolph Lundgren at the end of 2021, Fox stood for the tough survival cracker “Till Death” in front of the camera.
Emma (Megan Fox) and her husband, Mark (Eoin Macken), who has turned into a control freak, were once a lot happier. The couple’s marriage is so troubled that a frustrated Emma has even started an affair with one of Mark’s colleagues. As a result, the husband has apparently finally seen the light.
For the tenth wedding anniversary of the two, Mark has romantically decorated their remote, wonderfully snow-covered country house on a frozen lake with rose petals scattered everywhere, a crackling open fire and soft candlelight. It’s going to be a wonderful day, an even better evening and a fantastic night full of passion – it almost seems as if everything is back to how it was when their love began.
But then Emma wakes up the next morning handcuffed to her husband. Just as she’s halfway to waking up, Mark commits a bloody suicide. But that’s not all. He has also hired two hitmen (Callan Mulvey, Jack Roth) to end Emma’s life as well. But she is far from ready to die and takes up the seemingly unequal fight with the heavily armed criminals…
