This is an absolute classic. I first saw this a long time ago on Moviedrome, and watching it again, it never fails to pull me in, and it never lets go. Michael Caine is an absolute evil bastard in this, and he's surrounded by a menagerie of low life scum. It's an unrelenting film, that wears it's humour jet black. And such a downbeat, bleak ending.
What a great movie, an absolute classic.
