A man whose wife disappeared while they honeymooned at sea has been sentenced by a federal judge to eight years in prison for involuntary manslaughter.   Lewis Bennett, 42, apologized to the family of Isabella Hellman during a Tuesday hearing before U.S. District Judge Federico Moreno in Miami. He waived his right to appeal.   Defense attorneys sought a 7-year sentence, a year lower than the maximum number spelled out in a plea agreement reached last November. Bennett was originally charged with murder, with investigators alleging he intentionally tried to sink the boat, but later dropped the charges.  "It's not because I expect that he will commit this crime again," Judge Moreno said. "Sentencing is for punishment." Before Moreno announced his decision, Bennett, a dual citizen of Australia and the United Kingdom, asked the judge that he let him get out of prison sooner so he could continue to raise the couple's daughter, who was an infant when the mother vanished. Emelia Bennett turns 3 in July and is being raised by his parents in Scotland. "If you may permit me to be with my daughter as soon as possible," Bennett said. "I want to bring her up in a manner that is respectful to my wife's wishes." But Moreno sided with prosecutors and chose eight years in prison as the sentence and three years on supervised release. Hellman disappeared as the couple sailed off the Bahamas in May 2017. A statement from the U.S. Attorney's office says Bennett had experience sailing, including training on emergency procedures and had previously traveled from St. Marteen to Australia. His wife, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Cuba, had not trained in emergency sailing procedures and had less experience, prosecutors said. The couple had been married for three months when they set sail to St. Marteen, Puerto Rico and Cuba for a delayed honeymoon in late April. After they left Cuba on May 14, Bennett asked Hellman take over control of the boat for the night so he could go rest in the boat's cabin, according to court documents. He didn't require her to wear a life jacket, harness or personal locator, prosecutors said in the statement. He said he woke up when the craft hit something, and Hellman was missing. Assistant U.S. attorney Kurt Lunkenheimer said on Tuesday that Bennett "did not search for her diligently enough despite him being an experienced sailor."

[Toronto After Dark Review] GAME OF DEATH Explodes In A New Era of Millenial Horror
New Post has been published on https://nofspodcast.com/game-of-death-review/
[Toronto After Dark Review] GAME OF DEATH Explodes In A New Era of Millenial Horror
It’s kill or be killed in Game of Death. The film is little bit Belko Experiment, a little bit Hunger Games, and a little bit of none of those. In similar fashion to Beyond the Gates, a mysterious board game has gone awry. Consequences quickly become dire, and the countdown is on. The kids aren’t alright.
Though the premise of Game of Death isn’t all-together new, it’s the tone and the voice of this film that sets it apart as something unique.  Game of Death is quiet, edgy, dark and violent. It’s got a faux-retro vibe in only the way that 2000’s babies will appreciate. It’s the Spring Breakers of Horror.
A group of unlikable teenagers are enjoying the summer the way unlikable teens do; obnoxious selfie videos, sexual intercourse, alcohol, and rooting through old closets for mysterious and deadly board games. Jokes aside, shit gets real after each of the teens lay a finger on the board. The game springs to life, pricking a drop of blood from each of them.  The number “24″ pops up on the small screen. An internal clock begins to click downwards.
The rules are simple; kill or be killed. (But let’s talk board games for a second here. Hardly a fun premise. Even if you are enthusiastic from the get-go. This game has about as much replay-ability as Monopoly at a cottage in the middle of nowhere with a group of players who never do trades. *shudder*) The kids quickly ignore the game; their attentions spans click down quicker than the countdown. That is, until someone’s head explodes.
In a highly realistic fashion, chaos ensues. The teens are in hysterics, and no one immediately blames the game. The kids at first suspect a sniper, and then an unfortunate neighbour who checks the property. But, they finally turn their attention to the Game Of Death after another head goes, as Pennywise would say; Pop! Pop!
What happens next is where the real conflict of this film lies. There is dissension among the teens. All while the clock keeps ticking, they bicker about whether self-preservation should out-rank the lives of 22 other souls. Strangely reserved, audiences won’t be able to predict if Game of Death is able to bring about a massacre, even with its less-than-redeemable round of players. Will they resort to murder to stay alive?
I’ve actually seen Game of Death twice now. When I first caught it, I was isolated by heavy headphones in a dark screening room at Fantasia Festival in Montreal. There was no squirming audience, no laugh track to flavor my experience. And again, now at Toronto After Dark. It’s a strange film, that I don’t think I’ve fully digested – even after having several months to sit on it. With genre film, it can be hard to gauge how an audience will react to a certain intestine, or extended make-out scene without actually experiencing the film in a crowd. I’m sure midnight audiences will eat up the extensive gore and top notch special effects. But, the quiet, indie drama aspects leave me a bit perplexed. How will an audience fair with viscera one moment, and tumblresque visuals the next?
Game of Death may just be a perfect Frankenstein’s Monster of odd tones. I wasn’t far off in saying this film is the ‘Tumblr‘ of genre films. It provides a multimedia of visuals; video game elements, iPhone videos, cartoon elements, dream-like visuals, and 80’s synth. All of which delivered on a calm and apathetic plane. The film is able to starkly jump from a violent death scene to a wide, silent shot without any fanfare. We don’t pause to leave or pick-up emotional baggage. The film may have valleys and peaks, but I dare you to stop and care.
I was expecting a gory, fun ride through a teenage nightmare. I got the gore.. but I’m not quite sure if they delivered the fun. Or, if Game of Death even wanted to. If you’re looking for something different, this is it.
But I’ve got to hand it to that gore. Bonus points for the special effects alone.
