The Big Ugly (2020)
In The Big Ugly, Vinnie Jones (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch) stars as Neelyn, an enforcer sent from London to West Virginia to set up a money-laundering operation with an oilman (Emmy nominee Ron Perlman from Hellboy and The Capture). When Neelyn’s girlfriend disappears, nothing will stop him getting answers – and retribution.
Winner of seven international awards, The Big Ugly also stars Golden Globe nominee Malcolm McDowell (A Clockwork Orange, Bombshell) as a London mob moss.
