Their profession is making manure out of bones and the blood of deceased in accidents. Much to their disappointment, the brothers find out that business is getting tougher. They seek a different alternative, and it comes as a shock to the viewers.

The brothers find their supplies running low, and suddenly Damon comes up with an idea. The idea surfaces as he spots three helpless travelers trapped in a secluded spot on the road. Damon decides to kill the travelers to get the organic fertilizer from them. Thus, he could impress his brother Angus.

There is a twist in the movie as Damon falls in love with Sophie, one of the trapped victims. There is a connection between Sophie (Anna McGahan) and the other two victims James and Wes (done by Oliver and Jamie). And, things go out of control as one among the trapped escapes. The movie, blended with bloody scenes and some deadly humor, has its backdrop on an isolated farmhouse. The place is the best refuge for the brothers who are running the fertilizer-manure business. The manure is a mixture of manures extracted from cows and from dead bodies. Although there is a variety in the movie, the movie seems very naïve. Both of the directors, Colin and Cameron Cairns, try to bring justification to the bloodstained and tainted business run by the brothers. Rather, both of them appear like psychos deriving out of exploiting corpses for money.

The movie is filled with humor that sends ripples of laughter across the audiences. Although made with a tight budget, there is no lack of horror and humor in the movie which makes it worth watching.

Verdict: There is a balance maintained between horror and humor in the movie, which is to be commended.
