From the wreckage of a buddy comedy rises something stranger: a story that fractures midway into an existential revenge thriller—burning forward with the inevitability of the sun’s passage across the sky.

An unsettling mystery about desperation and class divisions in the age of digital capitalism.

The Defiler is a fuck-yeah-tale of passion, mayhem, love and revenge, ode to 80’s action, italian ripp offs and b-sleaze set in the cinematic splatter-punk universe.

Set in the darkest time of the year, a feverish and delirious film about a small and ever-shrinking island within – located somewhere between the search for pleasure and the inherently destructive powers of capitalism – the Ecstasy.

On his way to the next village, a peasant finds out that he has mischievous company.

The peaceful existence of former career criminals is shattered by a midnight phone call to one of them, made by a former associate believed to be dead. Turns out he’s back — and out for blood.
