Ken Boyd (Kevin Corrigan- `The Departed')has the sort of life only a deranged masochist would be jealous of. He lives with his far from doting mother after being released from a mental institution or `looney bin' as he calls it. His best mate has managed to get him a job at an ice cream parlour where the boss takes great pleasure out of making him feel small. He finds it hard to sleep as he is continually haunted by flash backs to the guys that help put him over the edge. Then he is sent to a private function where one of his prior tormentors is actually celebrating his birthday - Ken has to dress up as ice cream cone, which only adds to the continuing torture. Then the tormentor turns up dead and enter Sherriff Walt Fuller played by the brilliant Barry Bostwick, he has a career going back to the seventies and played `Brad' in `The Rocky Horror Picture Show', so I will always have a massive soft spot in my heart for him, and needless to say he steals every scene he is in -fan,bloody tastic. He has a trusty sidekick who is more into puns than boring old detective work. We also have a love interest played by Lucy Davis who I also love and she plays it just the right side of English quirky. But just when you think things can't get any more mysterious his eleven year old daughter turns up and sort of gets things moving at a rate of knots. Meanwhile the body count rises. None of the above is a plot spoiler but more a scene setter to entice you to watch this brilliant little movie.Read full review
