“Three lifelong friends at the bottom rung of a brutal crime syndicate are the best at making people disappear—until they’re told to keep one alive… and realize they already killed him.”
“Three men. One mistake. No way out.”
HOSTAGE
Hostage is a high-octane, darkly comedic crime thriller that tracks the journey of three childhood friends—Roy, Ken, and Bob—as they rise through the bloody ranks of a powerful organized crime syndicate. From shaking down kids for lunch money and running playground rackets, the trio has grown into a tight-knit cleanup crew — specialists in body disposal, known for their cold efficiency, loyalty, and ability to never ask questions.
Their jobs are brutal, but strangely routine. The rules are clear: no names, no attachments, no mistakes. Each job is a carbon copy of the last. Pick up. Clean up. Move on. Over the years, the banality of violence has become their normal, and they’re thriving in the safety of that structure.
Until the day everything goes sideways.
“Hostage” explores loyalty, identity, and the absurdity of violence through sharp dialogue, unexpected humor, and breakneck pacing. It’s Fargo meets Goodfellas, with a hint of Burn After Reading — a rollercoaster of suspense that asks: how far can you go to cover up a mistake, before the cover-up becomes the crime?
