Film: Very Bad Things (1998)

DVD: Enhanced 16x9
Very Bad Things

"If you take away the horror of the scene, take away the tragedy of the death, take away all the moral and ethical implications that have been drilled into your head since grade one, do you know what you're left with? A 105-pound problem that needs to be moved from point A to point B."

Review: A well-crafted black comedy about a bachelor party gone wrong, very wrong. After a prostitute is accidentally killed in the suite of a Las Vegas hotel, events swing wildly out of control as five friends try to cover it up. Compounding guilt, anger and paranoia explodes as they turn on each other.

"You left a dead prostitute alone in the desert?"
"She's not alone..."

"I'm like a lighthouse! I stayed lit for you man! I never go dark. Never go dark!"
