Storyline

Random car trouble and aid from a good Samaritan aren't what they seem, much to ex-drug addict Lance's growing horror. Retribution for a past injury is the name of this peculiar stranger's game as he violently, callously and torturously dismantles Lance's life bit by bit. Desperate yet unsuccessful, Lance tries to recall what harm he brought to this particular man (which will end this game), confessing to other misdeeds that prompt his tormentor to seek out and retrieve the injured parties to share in his vengeance. With body parts running out, it's a wonder if Lance will ever recall the correct transgression that started it all before only his life remains.

Quotes

The Stranger: Here's what's gonna happen. You're gonna go home, you're gonna kiss your wife, and you're gonna tell her that ya love her.
Lance Reed: 'kay. That sounds good so far. Anything else?
The Stranger: That's it. Oh, but you're never to mention the fact that you know she fucked your brother. You're not gonna yell at her, you're not gonna leave her, you're gonna spend the rest of your life with her - and every time you kiss her, you're gonna know that your brother shot a huge wad down her throat.

User Reviews

Fantastic comedy horror

I can't believe there are only 6 reviews on this film. My God this film had me in tears laughing all the way through. It's sharp, clever, witty and downright hilarious. I won't get involved into any plot ideas here but lets just say there are a myriad of plot twists on display here. In fact this film is extremely gruesome as well but it balance the elements very nicely to pack in a 90min feature. The director has been noted with this reveiwer and the main hero of the film is a talent beyond talent. The show really belongs to the main antagonist as he is full of tricks up his sleeve and is so evil throughout. This is in the runnings for best comedy horror for me of all time.
