Blood Money

In this British thriller a group of 20 somethings hold up waiting for the buyer of their stolen painting to arrive. With a corpse on their hands, no idea when the buyer will arrive and escalating paranoia growing between them can they pull this heist off? Sadly we've seen this before, many many many times. Trust issues developing between our characters and the group imploding from within.

With a forgettable cast, copy & paste storyline and predictable ending there really is little complimentary to speak of in Blood Money.

Elements of horror are teased and I thought for a moment the movie was going to go in a different direction but alas it passed every checkpoint I expected it to.

The Good:

Fairly tense

The Bad:

Highly predictable

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

I still can't see criminals as protagonists! Why in the blue hell would I root for them?

Good old-fashioned Hitchcockian suspense abounds in this cracking and excellent thriller starring rising star Ollie Barbieri.

This was ace and everything you'd want in a Hithcockian suspense film. So taut and tense. Loved it. I think every body should to see this film.

A dark and intense thriller. Great cast of young actors and a gripping and well written script. Some really scary moments. Had a real feel of Hitchcock crossed with Shallow Grave. Really enjoyed it and highly recommend. My friend and my family watch this film and all of them appreciate it. Watch it by daylight....

The tension just keeps building throughout and kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. I still can't work it all out completely but highly recommended if you love a thriller with a good amount of horror and action towards the end. My family enjoy this film very much. We watch it again.

The Plot.

After a botched art heist in France, a group of friends are left with a body on their hands and the police hot on their trail.

They hide the body and make a plan to sell the painting and return home.

But as they wait for the chance to escape from their secluded holiday home, they realize the body has gone missing.

Paranoia and fear sets in and the friends begin to turn on each other.

Soon it is clear there's a killer in the house and the group must figure out who is responsible before they all suffer the consequences.

Very low budget film although they do enough with no money. The female lead has nice big knockers and a BJ face but it's not enough to make thi movie compelling. Especially since she's not naked.

The biggest problem with this movie is that it's all boring talk and virtually no action.
