A multi-award-winning* and hilarious short film from New Zealand, released in 2006.

Five mobsters sit in a diner and pass the time between jobs by shooting the shit. One of them suggests that the story of "Little Red Riding Hood" is actually a morality tale about sex-education. When the others don't believe him, he retells the story as it was meant to be told.

Tarantino-mashes-up-with-Brothers-Grimm in this dark and intensely funny fantasy/comedy that will change the way you look at fairytales forever!

"BIG BAD WOLVES" has just screened as part of a retrospective programme at the prestigious CLERMONT FERRAND INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL in February 2011.

PRAISE FOR "BIG BAD WOLVES"

"There are many qualities to this film I really admire - most notably, its complex assembly and its ambition. This a short that doesn't take the easy way out in terms of concept, design, or execution. The film making here is self-assured, and the assembly of the film is well-considered and propulsive." - AintItCoolNews.com

"It mixes humour, quite a bit of philosophy about morality, and the requisite horror elements, all in a tightly woven 13 minutes of at times insane visuals...Singh is arresting with his visuals and you may need a second viewing to actually fully appreciate the narrative he's laying down for us." - ScaryMinds.com
