About Contestants
A strange man is holding a contest for his own perverse amusement. The six contestants are trapped in a warehouse with a genetically devised monster for an entire weekend. The couple that makes it out alive will win the prize. But they have to endure living in a freight elevator shaft, a garage, and a dungeon. A reality show where all the players get screwed.
Directed by David Stanley, Contestants leans on a strong ensemble — Briana Banks, Sunrise Adams, Stephanie Swift — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2004.

Hazel runs a beauty salon out of her house, but makes extra money by providing ruthless women the oppurtunity to perform hit jobs. L.T. is a parasite, and contacts Hazel looking for work after he runs out of money. She is reluctant to use him for a hit, since she prefers using women, but decides to try him on a trial basis. Meanwhile, the cop she pays off wants an arrest to make it look like he's doing his job, but Hazel doesn't want to sacrifice any of her "associates". The sleazy side of life is explored in this delightfully dark and deadpan film.
