Guy is a young film executive who's willing to do whatever it takes to make it in Hollywood. He begins working for famed producer Buddy Ackerman, a domineering, manipulative, coldhearted boss.

Guy decides to exact revenge on Buddy by kidnapping him and subjecting him to cruel and unusual punishment.
