I had heard of the sex term from somewhere, so I knew what to expect, but I have to admit, I wasn't expecting this film to be as good as it was. Basically three northern women: Kim (Kidulthood and Dead Set star Jaime Winstone, Ray's daughter), Lisa (Sian Breckin) and Tammi (Nichola Burley), a Mediterranean resort nightclub, meet four eager men Marcus (Jay Taylor), Bluey (Tom Burke), Josh (Julian Morris) and Sean (Robert Boulter), who invite them to party on a boat (belonging to a rich man), with alcohol and drugs (ecstacy and cocaine mainly) at the ready. They get into a conversation about some sex positions, one of which mentioned is the "donkey punch" (when the man is about to cum doing anal, he pulls out and punches the girl on the back on the neck). Not long after, five of them go to the big bedroom and have a near orgy with each other, and unfortunately, trying the "donkey punch", Josh manages to kill Tammi. They decide (just like I Know What You Did Last Summer) to dispose of the body and make something up, but with all the fears and consequences, one by one they are all going crazy either with guilt or anger, and erupting into violence. Being shot by flares, stabbed and dying of blood loss, savaged by a spare boat propeller, suicide (jumping overboard) and accidental hanging (with a boat rope) are just some of the consequences awaiting each character. I was kind of hoping Winstone would be the last to survive, but never mind, each actor gets their moment, the sexual scene is very important and memorable (especially how it ends), and the violence is eye-catching, a very well done low budget British thriller film. Very good!
