With a script by Sigurd Ueland ( Space Hospital), Coffee, Kill Boss benefits from a collection of some of Holllywood's best characters actors who create a frequently hilariously and relentlessly dark comedy with the chaos of Clue and the irreverence and underlying hostility of Office Space. With a seductive temp (Noureen DeWulf, television's Anger Management) by his side, Henry must find the killer before the killer finds him. The film stars Jemison as Henry Wood, whose normal day at the office is hijacked by a sadistic killer who kicks off the day by killing the company's president (Academy Award nominee Robert Forster) shortly before he's to lead the company through a potential acquisition that will make members of management rich beyond their wildest dreams. Written and directed by Quentin Tarantino.Eddie Jemison (Ocean's Trilogy films, Bruce Almighty) leads a terrific cast in Nathan Marshall's darkly comical Coffee, Kill Boss available now through Devolver Digital Films and through most of your popular VOD outlets. The revenge impulse that was Psycho stuff in Fatal Attraction becomes triumphant group therapy in this hit comedy that gently mocks woman’s vanity - the plastic surgeon played by Rob Reiner tells Hawn, “If I give you one more face lift you’re going to be able to blink your lips” - while serving as an aging divorcee’s Declaration of Independence, to the tune of Leslie Gore’s “You Don’t Own Me.” Serving as the clearest blueprint for The Other Woman, the movie takes its inspiration from Ivana Trump, the recently sundered wife of The Donald, who tells the trio of First Wives, “Don’t get mad. And three’s not a crowd but a merry coven.
“Are we talking about revenge?” Midler wonders, and Keaton replies, “No, I’m talking about justice.” Be afraid, be very afraid, all cheating men, of a scorned woman’s calculation. What are three fortyish women - collagen-preserved Elise (Goldie Hawn), frumpy Brenda (Bette Midler) and no-nonsense Annie (Diane Keaton) - to do? Hit a man where it hurts: in his bank account.
When they were young and perky, they married ambitious men and helped them to the top.
