I'm looking for a guy named Lucifer

Warning: Spoilers
This is a fun low budget grindhouse that lacked continuity. The Thief (Billy Blair) is commissioned by Lucifer (Nick Gomez) to get a box that is protected by Josephine (Paula Marcenaro Solinger) an unpolished poorly choreographed macabre Uma Thurman lite. There is a bounty hunter and a couple of cops who add to the great characters. Somehow a honeybee got wrote into the script that really had nothing to do with the movie other than to add filler and give director/writer Jennifer Michelle Stone II a role. Not that it wasn't a cute part, I was just confused how it fit in and why the film never returned to the beginning when it started its flashback, like any half decent scripted film.

The choreography fighting was bad except for a couple of fighters with minor roles, most likely the only professionals. They did a lot of slow motion filming to cover up the bad movements...which BTW were the movements they actually wanted as they have extra features showing us the 3 minutes of fight rehearsals.

About half way through the film the dead gypsy fortune teller lets us know some useless information about the box and where all these extra characters are coming from. It isn't until the end that we find out.

Guide: F-word. No sex. Front loaded stripper nudity.
