To celebrate the release of BBC’s dark comedy thriller Mad Dogs on DVD in Australia, Roadshow Entertainment together with The Reel Bits is giving readers a chance to win one of 5 DVD copies to what the Sunday Express described as having “one of the best starts to a thriller…on TV for years”.
It sounded like an invitation too good to be true: an all expenses-paid trip to their friend Alvo’s luxury villa in Majorca, complete with sun, pool and all the champagne they can drink. But soon after old college buddies Quinn, Woody, Baxter and Rick arrive, they find themselves stuck in the holiday from hell. Alvo was never the easiest man to get along with, but now there’s a new edginess to his jokes. Past tensions and resentments begin to resurface. And it seems he’s made some powerful enemies…
Before they know it, the boys have stolen a boat, disposed of a body and are caught in the middle of a major drugs deal. These are not master criminals; they’re just four ordinary guys, totally out of their depth – forced into doing crazy things fuelled by fear and adrenaline – in this horrifying and unfamiliar world. Will the four of them get out of there alive, or are they just digging themselves deeper and deeper into an enormous mess?
A stylish dark comedy thriller filmed on location in the beautiful Mediterranean, Mad Dogs combines the rich characters and subversive black humour of Fargo with the emotional pressure-cooker atmosphere of Sexy Beast.
