Sugarhouse

Sugarhouse

A funny, furious and frightening little film with magnetic performances (from Steven Mackintosh, Ashley Walters and Andy Serkis) and a script that bristles with threat and misunderstanding. After years of trying, London film at last has its Tarantino moment.

- Jason Solomons, THE OBSERVER

Tom (Steven Mackintosh) is a middle-class city boy whose life has reached breaking point. D (Ashley Walters) is a young crack-head: smart, witty, desperate. Tom is completely out of his depth when he finds himself in D’s abandoned warehouse attempting to do a “deal” with the energetic, volatile drug addict. The two enter into an irrational, deadly game of cat and mouse. The tense drama escalates when psychotic local crime-lord Hoodwink (Andy Serkis) wakes up to find his snub nose gun missing.

Featuring three outstanding performances, this urban thriller is director Gary Love’s feature debut, based on screenwriter Dominic Leyton’s critically-acclaimed stage play Collision.
