Written and directed by Boa Yakin, Death In Love attempts to show three lives  that are all destroyed through one horrific event. Starring Josh Lucas, Jacqueline Bisset and Lukas Haas, the story immediately combusts at the very beginning of the film, leaping into a series of one graphic sex scene after another.
