Play :: Buddy Ackerman is one of the most powerful men in the cut-throat world of Hollywood, the mastermind of a top studio's high grossing, ultra violent horror slate - and he's the boss from hell. Guy, his eager and idealistic new assistant and would-be screenwriter, soon finds himself serving as Buddy's personal slave. Hoping to be given his big break, he endures Buddy's relentless abuse until he reaches breaking point, leading to a torturous showdown between mentor, protégé and lover, with devastating consequences.
