BOTCHED
The Story:
Ritchie Donovan (Stephen Dorff) smoothly carrying out a diamond robbery. Then it all suddenly goes wrong, leaving Ritchie, diamond-less and limping away. His boss, Mr Groznyi (Sean Pertwee), is decidedly unhappy with this outcome. As Ritchie owes Groznyi a substantial debt, the boss has the power to send him on one more big job, to steal an antique crucifix from the penthouse of a tower block in Moscow.
There he teams up with the sadistic Peter (Jamie Foreman) and his put-upon brother Yuri (Russell Smith). After managing to seize the crucifix, they're heading back down in the lift, which fills up with other folk from the building. Then it gets stuck on an apparently unused thirteenth floor. The criminals, who take the others hostage, at first assume it's the building security that has stopped the lift - but then things start getting bloody. One young hostage gets decapitated ("I take him to the lift. The door opens. Big scissors. The head comes off. And here it is," Peter explains), then Ritchie finds some freshly-flayed facial skin. Ick.
