Swimming with Sharks

About

In this underrated black comedy, gullible Guy lands a job as personal assistant to Buddy Ackerman, a repulsive, cutthroat studio exec. Guy is eager to climb the ladder of success, but Buddy stops at nothing to grab credit and foil Guy's plans. What Buddy doesn't know is that the tables are about to turn in a big way.

Press

This is a bold, enormously enjoyable effort, by turns both hilarious and disturbing. Los Angeles - Swimming With Sharks, the latest Tinseltown dig at Tinseltown, is being advertised as a jokey spoof, but it's something quite different: a dark slice of retribution that recalls Stephen King in his Misery mode.
