Four Men Win The Lottery But Only One Will Live To Spend It In JACKPOT

Todd Brown, Founder and Editor

[Updated With English subtitled teaser.]

When the producers of Cold Prey and the writer of Headhunter join forces to create a comedy you should expect a little bit of blood to be spilled. And that is very much the case with the upcoming Jackpot (Arme Riddere).

The movie is set in the border country between Norway and Sweden, where we meet a bunch of scruffy guys; Oscar, Thor, Billy and Tresko (The Clog), who share a criminal past.They are working in a strange factory in the middle of nowhere producing plastic Christmas trees. But they are also gamblers. Like most people they never win anything, until now!This is the story of that time they actually won 1.739.361 Norwegian Kroner, a number that proves impossible to divide into four equal parts... and that is when the fun begins!
Directed by Magnus Martens from a script by Jo Nesbo with Norwegian Ninja's Mads Ousdal in one of the lead roles, the first teaser for what looks like it could be a Coen Brothers' style fusion of comedy and violence has just arrived and is worth a look below.
