A new comic caper about everyone's fantasy- finding free money - and lots of it! It's Snatch meets Noises Off . A bag of stolen cash is left shamelessly unattended in the kitchen of a fancy four star hotel. Bag Fulla Money is a fast and furious four-letter-word farce that flies with machine gun dialogue that crackles with wit, grit and hysterics. It tells the tale of the chef, his girl and six others in an effort to out wit, out con and out last each other and make off with a million bucks.
The cast includes Diana De La Cruz, Amber Dow, Heather Dilly (Walk Two Moons ), Jon Ecklund, Richard Mazda (Batman Begins, Love Actually ), Stu Richel (Wind on the Water ), Darius Stone (HBO's "Real Joke"), Christopher Wisner and David White (Full Monty ).
