Synopsis:
A woman is about to get drilled and hammered... and not in the way she likes it... In 1977 a series of nasty murders are carried out at the Lusman Arms, an old apartment building in Hollywood. The perpetrator is never apprehended. 27 years later a young couple moves in under ongoing renovations. And what seemed to be just an old apartment building turns out to be something much worse. There is something evil living deep inside the building itself... something that needs to keep killing to stay alive. And all you wanted was a little help with the plumbing...

Intentions:
The original Toolbox Murders is pretty bad, only the kills are decent. The remake on the other hand has some really good stuff going on. The biggest complaint I have is the character Ned, you know; the red herring, and the neighbor couple; Saffron and her boyfriend. What I set out to do was to keep the killing spree from the original and use it as an intro to the remake. The kills have been recut, now with less misogyny, less bad acting and no masturbation. I then tried to reshape the remake so it builds on the, now, 1977 section. I’ve gotten rid of dull moments and some scenes have been rearranged in order to tell the story in a, hopefully, more interesting way. Less bullshit more to the point with more kills. Giving everyone what they want.
