Cheap Thrills (Dir: E.L. Katz)
First seen in the UK at FrightFest 2013, Cheap Thrills is finally unleashed in May 2014 – two long lost friends meet in a bar where they meet a rich couple who dare them to increasingly escalated bets with a cash incentive. This blacker-than-black misanthropic horror/comedy is a stark and hilarious depiction of the depths people will degrade themselves to for a quick buck.
Fantastic performances from all involved, hilarious and disturbing set-pieces, and like Funny Games & Pink Flamingos, this film is destined to become a cult classic.
