Blood Punch is a 2013 horror thriller film featuring a time loop, directed by Madellaine Paxson in her directorial debut, and starring Milo Cawthorne, Olivia Tennet, Ari Boyland, and Adelaide Kane.

His video-self chops off two of his fingers with a meat cleaver to establish his earnestness, then explains that they are in a bizarre situation because Milton wanted to impress a woman.

On the previous day, Monday, Milton attends a rehab center after having been caught cooking crystal meth.

Milton is intimidated by their getaway driver, her psychotic, trigger-happy cop boyfriend Russell (Ari Boyland), but is game for anything, having fallen in love with Skyler.

They drive to a hunting cabin in the woods, where he is astonished by the enormous array of weapons on the walls and lying around the place.

Legend says a vast number of men fought there for months, filling the valley with blood, though a Full Moon appeared in the sky each night.

In each iteration of the day, they kill Russell with a different weapon in the lodge and try different ways to escape the valley, but with each reset, they are all restored.

Skyler and Milton decide to follow the original plan of meeting the meth dealers, Archer (Cohen Holloway) and Nabiki (Adelaide Kane).

When they hand over the meth and demand the cash, the scene erupts into a double-crossing barrage of gunfire, and they barely escape without the money.

Old cave wall art depicts the aboriginal battle, and Russell repeats that a single warrior remained.

Cannibalizing the dashboard console's laptop and keypad, he prepares to make the video which Milton will discover at the movie's beginning.

[5] A reviewer at the Vodzilla website writes that "there is, hanging from this film's gallow's humour, plenty of serious subtext" and explains, Given that all three characters are meth users, in a rather obvious way, the film's narrative cycle serves as a metaphor for the recurring nightmare of drug dependency, where appetite, paranoia and desperation reign, and one day bleeds into another.

"[4] The Movies In Focus site gave Blood Punch 4 out of 5 stars, calling it "a slick, polished affair" suggestive of "Groundhog Day meets Evil Dead by way of Breaking Bad.

"[14] Horror Cult Films rated the movie at 7.5 out of 10 stars as an "intriguing, entertaining slice of time-loop, blood-splatted action,"[15] while a reviewer at the Nerdly website also gives it 5/5 as "a fantastic horror experience," praising the acting and the way the murders become "ever more farcical and gloriously over the top.

"[16] Vodzilla rates the film at 4/4 stars, praising how "Paxson's black comedy horror uses its Groundhog Day structure to capture cycles of abuse, addiction and violence.
