    watch one of his other films instead.

    Wow... as of today, not a single vote for this thing on imdb! It appears to have gone straight to tubi streaming. Well, l gave it a go. It's not good. When merle's grandmother croaks, he doesn't even have the money to bury her properly. So after complaining to everyone endlessly, some of his friends decide to rob a movie director. ...who has huge amounts of money and diamonds in his safe (a cardboard box !), for some reason. Will they get away with this heist? And quite the rushed ending... a fifteen second montage, showing what happened to everyone. SO low budget. Shady acting, bad script, bad casting, bad direction, bad editing, bad photography. And everyone in the cast has a different accent, none of which sound like they come from kentucky. If this were the director's first film, all could be forgiven. But he's made so many films already. Written, directed, and acted by tom whitus. He's had some hits and some misses.
