Sometimes, getting that mortgage payment over to the bank at the end of the month can be difficult. Or maybe it’s that vacation you want to take that you just quite can’t afford. Or perhaps the transmission on your fourth car is giving you trouble.

The film is co-written and directed by Jon Wright, who was behind the decently buzzed 2012 genre flick "Grabbers," and… we’re not sure what happened here.

Who knows, but here’s the official synopsis to make things a bit clearer:
Okay, that has potential on paper, but in execution….well, see below. No surprise, this has no U.S. distribution yet, but it’s set for release abroad in 2015.
