Among Friends

Synopsis

One too many dodgy deals puts a car salesman into an early grave. What a group of four indie musicians (now disbanded and unemployed) don't realise, when they accidently kill him, and bury him in the woods, is that he had a lot of money on him. Being drunk didn't help either, because when Rick, the leader of the group, learns of the money, retracing his footsteps in the woods and finding the body proves not only difficult, but insane.
