Thugs Mugs & Dogs ( Six Bend Trap)


It's the Mutt's Nuts! A dark, yet humorous gangster film full of northern grit, Thugs, Mugs & Dogs centres on ruthless businessman, Gordy Metcalf (ex-Underworld enforcer, Dave Courtney) who owns the best greyhound in the country and is married to the lustiest and bustiest wife (Cathy Barry) on either side of the Watford Gap! Council estate lad Danny (Martin Owen) and his pals, find their lives endangered by the decade-long feud between Gordy and an ex-greyhound trainer. The hapless trio find themselves trapped between both sides, with all thoughts of escape futile. They can die tomorrow or stay alive for few more months, the latter being the lesser of two evils. Thugs, Mugs & Dogs is an intricate tale of collaboration between loyal friends and the dire consequences of planning their revenge against the Mr Big of dog racing. Like a game of high-stakes poker, the man with the most money should win but in this tale the winner gets to keep his life! Set against the industrial back-drop of the North-East, Thugs, Mugs & Dogs is the most talked about northern crime film since the original 'Get Carter'. With a heart-stopping culmination filmed at Europe's richest greyhound race at Peterborough's Fengate Stadium, Thugs, Mugs & Dogs features an all-star cast led by Dave Courtney (The Krays, Triads, Yardies & Onion Bhajees), Paul Usher (Brookside, The Bill), Cathy Barry (Diary of a Milf), Thomas Craig (Coronation Street) and Lisa Riley (Emmerdale).
