Shallow Grave (1994)

Shallow Grave (1994) marks the directorial debut of Scottish filmster Danny Boyle, who went on to helm such indie-fied hits as Trainspotting (1996) and 28 Days Later (2002). It's about a trio of twentysomething roomies in Edinburgh who get their comeuppance after smugging their way through life as narcissistic cynics of the highest order. Hot doc Kerry Fox, mild accountant Christopher Eccleston, and gung-ho journo Ewan McGregor get off on humiliating and intimidating each potential roommate who comes to look at their fancy digs until finally they find a total misanthrope in Keith Allen and offer him the room. But Keith ends up tits up in bed, dead from an overdose—and instead of letting anyone know, they take his giant wad of dough and bury him in secret. As time goes on, the trio starts to unravel in terror of getting caught. It's as funny as it is taut, and Kerry is so very, very hot.
