Kill the Habit

Running time: 81 mins

A politically incorrect dark comedy about three chicks trying to get rid of a corpse.

Director Laura Neri?s dark, offbeat comedy stars Lili Mirojnick (Cloverfield) as Galia, who only wants to pick up some drugs from Lyle and leave. But trouble ensues when Gaila inadvertently kills Lyle and finds a stash of drug money. After calling her best friend, Soti, (Katerina Moutsatsos of The Hangover) to help get her out of the jam, the two girls find themselves hiding in Lyle?s apartment when Lyle?s fiery ex-wife, Cardamosa, arrives. But as it turns out, Cardamosa hates Lyle and is glad to see him gone. The three women agree to split the bonanza once they dump the body. However, time is of the essence - Gaila needs to get home in time for her newborn brother?s circumcision. With caustic wit and superlative comedic performances, Neri artfully presents situations that spiral out of control up to the shocking end, keeping us simultaneously entertained and on edge.
