A criminal scheme gone wrong is just the start of a string of life-threatening bad luck in this darkly comic thriller.
David (
Andy Serkis) and
Peter (
Reece Shearsmith) are a pair of second-rate criminals who are eager to make a big score and think they've come up with the formula for a perfect crime.
David works for a wealthy local businessman named
Arnie who dotes on his teenaged stepdaughter
Tracey (
Jennifer Ellison), and so with the help of
Arnie's slacker son
Andrew (
Steven O'Donnell), he and
Peter kidnap the girl and demand a hefty ransom for her safe return. But
Tracey puts up far more of a fight than
David and
Peter ever expected, and when
Andrew picks up the ransom only to discover they've been given a decoy instead of cash, the would-be kidnappers have no clue what to do next. But this problem seems like small potatoes when the owner of the seemingly abandoned cottage where they're holed up unexpectedly returns -- he turns out to be a hideously deformed lunatic with a murderous temper and a bitter hatred of trespassers.
