The premise
Marina (Alyona Babenko) is a journalist contemplating retiring, bored of writing stories of serial killers and murders that are front page news one day, and then are quickly forgotten the next. At a large house a lawyer is holed up, police are in the front garden, snipers on the roof and the lawyer asks for Marina. She’s a little surprised by this as she and the lawyer have only crossed paths a few times during her career, but agrees to go to the lawyers house. Arriving at the house she’s confronted by the large police presence, she’s given a quick debrief of the situation and requested not to go into the house. She declines and enters the house. Just inside the front door is the lawyers wife, she tell Marina that he’s lost it and locked the children in their rooms and that he’s going to kill them all.
Horror Vault's take
A weary journalist who has spent her career documenting the worst of humanity finds herself pulled into a situation far more immediate and dangerous than any story she has ever covered. Called personally to a house surrounded by armed police, she defies orders and steps inside — straight into a volatile standoff with a lawyer who may be on the edge of no return. What unfolds is a suffocating, real-time confrontation where every word and every second carries lethal weight. Junk is a tightly wound Russian thriller that turns the observer into the participant.
