I saw Frank and Penelope, starring Billy Budinich-Untitled Murder Project 2.0_tv, Up North_tv; Caylee Cowan-Willy's Wonderland, Sunrise in Heaven; Johnathon Schaech-DC's Legends of Tomorrow_tv, Prom Night_2008 and Donna D'Errico-Austin Powers in Goldmember, Baywatch_tv.
This movie is written and directed by Sean Patrick Flanery-The Boys_tv, The Boondock Saints, Dexter_tv-and he even has a small cameo in it, as well as a few others. Billy plays a man that needs a change of scenery after catching his wife with another man. Billy stumbles across Caylee at a strip club-she works there-and together, they go on a road trip, after she quits her job of course. Sean plays Caylees boss. Billy and Caylee then meet Johnathon in an out of the way, off the beaten path town that is really a tourist trap. You see, Johnathon is a cult leader that practices sin eating, which basically means that he and his flock are cannibals-they eat the sins of their victims. Donna is one of Jonathons flock. It's kind of like Thelma and Louise meet some cannibals. I don't know if Sean is planning a sequel or not but the movie ends in a cliff hanger, as if there will be a part 2.
It's rated R for violence, language, drug use and sexual content-including nudity-and has a running time of 1 hour & 52 minutes.
I enjoyed it and would buy it on DVD.
Plot summary
In the spirit of THELMA and LOUISE and TRUE ROMANCE comes FRANK and PENELOPE, a once in a lifetime love story that stretches across the scorching east Texas blacktop when a man, Frank, on his emotional last legs finds his savior and soulmate, Penelope, seductively dancing on a wobbly brass pole in a run-down strip club. And, a life most certainly headed off a cliff is redirected by the type of love that most call mad. But, unwinding each other's troubled life threads creates knots that threaten to strangle the place where all the veins meet when they sit down at a charismatic, sin-eating cult leader's truth table and unpack each other's cluttered closets. And, deciding what to run from and what to run to becomes a bloody battle between life and love in their newfound world in which EVERYTHING is now worth dying for.
