ABOUT ABOUT

What happens when you bring burglars and serial killers together? Viet Nguyen’s award-winning movie cleverly mashes different genres like the robber caper, romantic comedy, and torture horror in an unlikely and unforgettable combination. Ollie (Christopher Dinh) and Blair (Katie Savoy) are your typical attractive interracial couple who enjoy spending their time as a couple, breaking into the high class residences of rich people. Trying to put a major mistake from their last run behind them, the young lovers decide to pull off one last heist to avoid slipping into further debt.

Working with their accomplices Connor (Chris Riedell) and Riley (Tim Chiou), they locate an easy target in an isolated vacation home in the mountains.  Instead of finding an unsecured den of riches, the thieves stumble upon the home of a disturbed serial killer, which he uses as a place to torture and imprison his female victims.  Their plans to escape go even more awry when they decide to save a young woman named Vivian. As the killer tries to separate the members of the group from one another, while tracking their every move, the jokes and arguments begin to fly. With the genius mind of a master killer pitted against the skills of professional robbers, who will be outwitted? Prepare to be scared and laugh as things go unplanned in this madhouse where anything can happen.
