A group of six British youths must deal with the accidental death of one of their members during a weekend outing in this British drama. The main character is Neil who goes to meet his buddies at a country house to make a film. Included in the group are Rose, his girlfriend, Zita, a strong, young black woman, Giles who is into psychopaths, Lance and his girlfriend Charlotte, and finally Lionel who wants this film to be his calling card into the world of cinema. Things are fine until, after dropping some acid, Neil and Lance accidentally run over Lionel on their way to get cigarettes. The group decides to bury the body in the forest. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

Anna Campion directs Thandie Newton and Catherine McCormack in Loaded, which comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.66:1. There are no subtitles, but the soundtrack is closed-captioned. Supplemental materials include the theatrical trailer. This is a bare bones release from Disney/Buena Vista that should be of interest to those with an affection for films made outside the Hollywood system. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
