THE COTTAGE
The Story:
"We're gonna go to hell for this." as he utters it, mild-mannered, lepidophobic Peter (Reece Sheersmith) has little inkling of the trouble that is in store for him and his rough-edged brother David (Andy Serkis). Sure, they have just snatched Tracey (Jennifer Ellison) and brought her, bound and gagged, to an isolated cottage hideout until the ransom money turns up, but even in his wildest neurotic fantasies, Peter could never imagine the sheer amount of verbal and physical abuse he is going to endure from their recalcitrant abductee. He doesn't know that their inside man on the job, Tracey's idiot stepbrother Andrew (Steven O'Donnell), has been tailed by two of her father's blade-wielding henchmen (Wong, Chan-Presley) who are just waiting for the right moment to perform some creative slice-and-dice on the bungling kidnappers. Peter doesn't even realise that the countryside is positively teeming with those dreaded moths. He is, after all, a family man, not really cut out for this kind of work. Level-headed David has a better idea of how bad things can get - but as the two bickering brothers end up at a farm on the other side of the woods, even David doesn't see what's coming next...
