What would you do to earn 'Easy Money'?
There's a new reality TV game show that pays contestants to hurt themselves. How much pain would you endure to make some quick cash? Would you shoot yourself with a nail gun for $10,000? There are plenty of contestants willing to go on live TV to make a quick buck. Would you watch the show? The ratings are looking good. 'Easy Money' becomes the most talked about show on television.
Follow Damon Dahmer, the executive producer, as he creates such a bizarre television show. Damon is not only making good television, he is also struggling with his own inner needs to watch people in pain. Slowly, Damon pushes boundaries to find what is acceptable and what is not. Throw in his own revenge vendetta, and Damon's personal pain show viewings, and you get the first book in the series of 'Deadly Reality TV'.
Is the real horror what people are doing to themselves? Or is it the man that Damon reveals himself to be? Maybe it's just scary that people are actually watching the show.
Viewer (reading) discretion is advised. Not for the faint of heart. Recommended for 18+ due to some violent content. Warning: There are some bloody scenes.

Twisted Reality Show!

Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2020

Extreme "walk on the wild side" tension filled book!

How far would you go to win some cash? Would you step out of your normal routine and go to extreme lengths of hurting yourself to be able to lay your hands on some big money?

That is what happens in this book as TV producer Damon Dahmer has a reality show where people come on the show to win cash but the catch is they have to be willing to hurt themselves in horrific ways to earn the money. The contestants play off against each other and the one that is willing to do extra hurt to themselves is usually the one that will win the game.

I really liked the characters in this book as Dahmer is trying to make a go of his show, which in the beginning of the book he just wants the show to bring in some good ratings, but as time goes on he becomes more ruthless and will do anything to keep the show bringing in top ratings.

His secretary/assistant, Mary, is hesitant at first to even see what the people go through to win the cash, but Dahmer seems to rub off on her and she becomes just as involved as her boss on pulling in contestants to the dark world of the show.

How far is Dahmer willing to go on his show to get the ratings he wants? What are the contestants willing to sacrifice to get the cash?

I was very impressed with the writing style of author, Sea Caummiser, as she brought this world together! I was captivated right away by the storyline and was transported into her world quickly.

The story is an extreme horror romp and will take the reader over into the splatter punk realm without causing too much damage to their psych!

I am always willing to "walk on the wild side" and see what lies beyond that threshold of the extreme side of life. There are more books in this series and I will be moving into the second book shortly to continue on with the "extreme games" that lurk in the mind of this author. It really should be a fun ride! Four stars for this one!

Aa slightly comedic but also a slightly meaningful take on Splatter

This review is for the first book in the omnibus audio edition.

Story -4.5/5
Narration - 5/5

"Easy Money" by Sea Caummisar is the first book in the "Deadly Reality TV Series" and I have to say that listening is a whole 'nother thing from reading it. Firstly, the narrator Michael Ursu gave this a quality I missed when I read it; it's more tongue-in-cheek than I thought. I mean, the first words are "In the near distant future…"

The story is about a sadist, Damon Dahmer whose curiosity about pain (other peoples, of course!) and greed know no bounds. So... he develops a TV show where people are put into a bidding war to see who is willing to harm themselves most grievously for cash. For example, shooting oneself with 3 inch nails from a nailgun. *cringe, cringe*

But in the meantime he does research with prostitutes and street people with drug habits. This is where I'm glad I could be relieved of the mechanics of reading for this one; I noticed how much this is about more than just Splatterpunk, it's about motives, needs, greed, and the sadistic desire some have to see people hurt. It's a study in Schadenfreude, in a way. The author also explores how prostitutes and street people are victimized because of their need.
The narrator does a bang up job, actually performing instead of just reading it. This made a HUGE difference.

Recommended if you'd like a slightly comedic but also a slightly meaningful take on Splatter.

A study of what people will do for money.

This book is not my normal type of reading. It serves up challenges which cause extreme pain and makes you feel that along with the contestants. It totally kept my attention. It hits on a believable idea of the extreme things people will do for money. It is an interesting read if you do not get disturbed easily by the graphic descriptions..

Reaility TV that hopefully never comes to pass in reality

So Caummisar's work was new to me. This intro to the Deadly Reality Series is just what it claims to be. A gorefest.

The writing and plot in this novella is straightforward. The story clips along quite quickly and efficiently. A guy, Damon, who is a TV producer. He's a psycho, lacks any empathy for humanity, and frankly an all-around jerk to put it mildly. You learn early about some circumstances that explain why his is the way he is. That has made him essentially said psycho and driven only by occupational success. Damon and his assistant Mary get a little bit of character development. There were so many times I wanted to punch Damon's head off.

The story is scary in the premise: in today's world it isn't too difficult to imagine a producer and a network would go that extra step to create a game show where the entire purpose is to watch people hurt themselves for money. It is not difficult to imagine a TV producer as self-centered, self-important and monstrous as Damon, either, truth be told. Mary serves as kind of a nice emotional/moral counterpoint, even though she actually ends up going along with it all. And frankly I'm pretty sure if somehow the game show in the book Easy Money actually became a reality, there'd be an audience for it.

At first I wondered why people wouldn't "game" the rules of hurting themselves (in the "first episode") by minimizing the amount of harm they do to themselves in a given challenge. But as the plot develops (as a new show would too) they formalize instructions that would prevent a person from minimizing damage.

I was impressed by Caummisar's ability to work in a twist at the end. I hadn't really seen that coming after all the plot before that was linear and direct and focused on describing harm to people.

If you like gore-forward books, I think this series would be for you.

Proves money buys anything

Oh this was good. I've read a similar book by another extreme author that made me quite green. I couldn't finish it. Going into this book I was hoping it wasn't too similar and it wasn't. Bloody and brutal. There's an excellent vengeance storyline as well. What people won't do for money. Sad really. However, I couldn't help but think as I was reading along with each new task, "could I do this?" Of course, after I justified it in my noggin, I then reminded myself, I would never do such a thing, or would I....

Would you?
