This is a horror cult comedy and is not for everyone. Anson (rhymes with Manson), his brother Stef (Jimmi Simpson) and Stef's sadistic GF Mimi (Lily Cole) take a restaurant crew prisoner and plan to eat them. The six victims are tied to chairs while a wildcard is forgotten and unattended to. Stef tells them they plan a "pseudo European gangster style slumber party."
The brothers are terribly likable with funny lines. We get to know the victims and they are all great characters, especially Gabourey Sidibe. The Mexican food place has a French chef (Lothaire Bluteau) whose insults are "surprisingly colorful.'
The film uses "Night Court" and other obscure references that even the cast didn't understand. (I watched the commentary, which I normally don't.) Sarah Silverman had a minor part and only filmed for a day. I would recommend avoiding trailers as they show people dying which may be a plot spoiler for some. DVD cover is not a spoiler for a change. Great rock sound track. Katrina and the New Waves never sounded so good.
Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity.
