Bitter Feast
Director Joe Maggio | 2010 | 104 minutes | Horror, Thriller | English
Official Selection – Los Angeles Film Festival 2010
Peter Grey (James Le Gros), an overly zealous television chef kidnaps J.T. Franks (Joshua Leonard), an influential and notoriously snarky food blogger after a particularly nasty review deals the final blow to Grey’s already plummeting career.
Sequestered deep in the woods of the Hudson Valley, Grey keeps Franks chained up in a basement, presenting him with a series of deceptively simple food challenges – from preparing a perfect egg over easy, to grilling a steak precisely medium rare – punishing him sadistically for anything less than total perfection.
“CRITIC’S PICK! DELIGHTFULLY NASTY…ZESTY FUN.”
