What happens

Kingz is a 2007 German short action science-fiction horror film created by Benni Diez and Marinko Spahić about two young thugs (Olli Banjo and Mathis Landwehr) who go to a nightclub to close out a drug deal only to find something is not quite right about some of the patrons, including the owner (Bela B); the ensuing mayhem involves martial arts, swordplay, and gunfighting. The short film was shown at international film festivals and won a Méliès d'Argent in 2009. In 2017, Kingz received a general theatrical release through its inclusion in the Canadian science-fiction horror anthology film, Galaxy of Horrors. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
