Sinopse

When a foreign worker is found dead in a Singapore back street, nobody cares. The police dismiss it as just another underclass slaying until more victims appear, all killed with the same weapon. Singapore suddenly faces its first serial killer in decades, and the authorities are desperate. In desperation, they turn to the one man they despise almost as much as the killer himself: Detective Inspector Stanley Low. His career is in ruins, his bipolar disorder is barely under control, and he's as angry and unrepentant as ever. But he's also the only detective capable of understanding what drives this murderer. Racing against time, Low must navigate Singapore's stark income divide, where even death discriminates between rich and poor. He needs to solve the case quickly, stop a serial killer who's targeting the city's most vulnerable, and somehow hold onto his sanity.  A dark, disturbing examination of inequality and injustice, Rich Kill Poor Kill reveals the brutal reality behind Singapore's economic miracle and asks uncomfortable questions about who matters—and who doesn't—in a society obsessed with wealth.

    ⛰️ Deep in the misty mountains, where cell service fades and the modern world seems a distant memory, stands Holmes Lodge—a place of rustic beauty, absolute privacy, and inexplicable dread. 
    When artist Emma and her skeptical husband Mark arrive for what should be a rejuvenating retreat, they discover they're the only guests. The proprietor, Mr. Holmes, welcomes them with unsettling politeness and wine that tastes like nothing they've ever experienced. 
    As night falls, the walls seem to whisper. Footsteps echo in empty hallways. Strange figures lurk at the forest's edge. And Emma begins to notice inconsistencies in the lodge's architecture—spaces that should exist, but don't. 
    When Emma discovers a yellowed floor plan hidden in their room, it confirms her growing suspicion: Holmes Lodge is not what it appears to be. But by then, it might already be too late. 
    Some secrets are buried deep. Some voices should remain unheard. Some doors were never meant to be opened. 🤐 
    And some who check into Holmes Lodge were never meant to leave. 🔥 
    A meticulously crafted tale of mounting dread and ancient horrors hiding in plain sight, THE LODGE will make you question every creak in the floorboards and every smile from a stranger. 
    Some accommodations offer much more than just a good night's sleep—they offer eternity. 💀
