Like another reviewer I watched this at Dead By Dawn in Edinburgh. The festival director has a habit of finding undiscovered masterpieces. This is one of them.
The plot concerns two friends who decide to kidnap the bosses daughter. Though these two are like the Benny Hill equivalent of criminals. Really they should have had a dry run and kidnapped an ex girlfriend's pet cat before as they seemed to be very timid in the act.
The wife of one of the criminals is the star of the movie. Even though she does not appear until the final act. Her constant telephone calls had me in stitches.
It is very brutal in parts and I was laughing at all the cringe worthy scenes through out it. The writing is of a very high standard. I thought they got friend wife friend triangle just right. Also the movie looks like it cost 500 000 dollars not the 10 000 quoted by IMDb. If you like crime capers with a bit of horror in them this is the one for you. A gem.
