Unjustifiably underrated.

This has to be one of the darkest, sickest and certainly most funniest British films I've ever seen. Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels? Bah, you can keep it. I'll take Lava anyday. It's a film that deserves much better treatment than it has done. I absolutely love it.

I've banged on about how good this film is for years. A re write of Paul Tuckers "The Last Yellow" made three years earlier which was slated by the press. Joe Tucker takes the best ideas from that and made a cracking British film.
