Not like Shallow Grave or Usual Suspects at all!, 29 September 2001
Author: Lex van Schagen (SCHAGELA@HOTMAIL.COM) from Apeldoorn, Holland

I gave this one a shot, lured by the text on the cover that this flick would be like mix of the two very good above mentioned films. Not at all in my opinion. I think the plot is very cheaply worked out. The '4 dogs' could have found their way out of the situation more easily than making up this stupid idea about life insurances. I found the acting very poorly too, except maybe for Tim Curry.

All in all not worth the time or money.
