Killing Cabos (2004)

Very funny Mexican film that starts off quite surreal before settling into an entertaining adventure taking place over the course of one crazy night. Jaque (Tony Dalton) and Mudo (Kristoff) have the unclothed, unconscious body of their tyrannical boss Cabos (Pedro Armendariz, Jr) in the trunk of their car. After being rear-ended by a crazed, cross-eyed bus driver, they call their friend Ruben (Joaquin Cosio) to help them sort out the situation. Ruben was once know as "Mascarita", a masked Mexican wrestler, but don't ever call him that or he'll beat the crap out of you. Ruben shows up with his bodyguard Tony The Cannibal (Silverio Palacios) who helps him get out of some scrapes with a team of aggressive rugby players. And finally, there's vicious Botcha (Raul Mendez). He thinks that he has kidnapped Cabos. Not only has he got the wrong man, but he can't even get any response from the family when he contacts them threatening to kill him if he doesn't get retribution.

Alternate Titles: Matando Cabos
