About the Film
Darren barrels through work at a below average pizza shop, dreaming of being the poster boy of culinary leadership. He’s got the cooking skills, and the looks, but is completely incapable of standing up for himself. His pushover nature is put to the test when grizzled mobster, Grog enters the shop. A miscommunication error sees Darren serve Grog with his own personal hell... MUSHROOMS ON A PIZZA!
