The plot may be predictable but for fans of the gory revenge genre, director Ryûhei Kitamura’s latest is a solid genre exercise
An intensively minced blend of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and an Abdominal Surgery for Beginners DVD, this is a solid genre exercise in gore and retribution. After an ominous abduction scene featuring nubile victim Carly (Sabina Mach), the film cuts to down-on-her-luck pawn-shop customer Grace (a very watchable Gigi Zumbado) trying with another trinket just as the place is being burgled by three armed robbers; these are former army medic Cody (Stephen Dorff), plus brothers Alex (Emile Hirsch) and Shane (Tanner Zagarino). A fourth man in the gang, the getaway driver, takes off in a panic and Grace is pressed into driving them away from the crime scene after Shane is shot in the leg.

The Price We Pay is a 2022 thriller movie with Stephen Dorff, Sabina Mach and Erika Ervin. It is directed by Ryûhei Kitamura and written by Christopher Jolley.
The Price We Pay is a movie that is a combination of horror and thriller. The cast should make it work, the idea is good too, the script… something else again. This is a movie that always resorts to simple easy things and finds shelter in clichés and exaggerations to offer us a movie that does not catch our attention because what it is after is precisely that and which it does excessively.
About the Movie
This is a B series movie with a Blockbusters spirit of those years and very little originality in some of its proposals. The Price We Pay starts in a gas station (ideal setting that is almost a genre in itself) and defines itself as a “dirty” horror movie,...

"Let's see how deep this rabbit hole goes…" Lionsgate has revealed an official trailer for a grindhouse crime thriller titled The Price We Pay, a new film from Japanese genre director Ryûhei Kitamura (best known for Versus and The Midnight Meat Train). After playing at a few horror festivals earlier this year, the film will be out on VOD to watch in January if anyone is curious. After a pawn shop robbery goes askew, two criminals take refuge at a remote farmhouse to try to let the heat die down, but find something much more menacing. They discover a secret dungeon with sadistic violence—and when "Grandfather" comes home, all hell breaks loose. The film stars Stephen Dorff & Emile Hirsch, with Gigi Zumbado, Tyler Sanders, Erika Ervin, Jesse Kinser, Sabina Mach, Vernon Wells, and Tanner Zagarino. This seems like it borrows so many ideas from other, better horror films and mashes them into a forgettable,...

Emile Hirsch (Into the Wild), Stephen Dorff (Blade), and Gigi Zumbado (Fantasy Island) star in The Price We Pay, and when we first heard about the movie last year it was said that Hirsch and Dorff would be playing two criminals who attempt to rob a local pawn shop.
