    "Sharply written and darkly funny, a work of genuine originality and inspiration. There is hope for British cinema after all."
    The Saturday Times

    "A real breath of fresh air…eccentric, strangely heartfelt, and very funny… We might just have found our own Charlie Kaufman in Nick Whitfield."
    The Guardian

    "An intoxicating pleasure."
    The Independent on Sunday

    "The Finest cult film to have come from Britain since Withnail & I."
    Film4.com

    "It's simple, this job: stick to the rules, tell them everything, leave and never come back."

    Welcome to the world of David & Bennett, a mismatched pair of travelling salesmen in the business of cleaning out skeletons from closets. Together they travel across Britain, wandering in and out of other people's lives, performing 'the Procedure' whereby hidden secrets and lies are exposed. To literally fetch skeletons out of closets. When assigned by their boss, The Colonel (Jason Isaacs) to a remote family home as part of a graduation test for bigger jobs the duo find that they can't seem to get the job done as there is no hiding from your own skeletons…

    A superb comedy in the vein of Withnail & I, Skeletons is a very British kind of film and in 2010 walked away with the top prize at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, Winner of the Best British Feature Film.
