“Sometimes you can go home again; sometimes it’s just not a good idea.”
The Boys is a hilariously ugly comedy about Donny and Des, two brothers who return to their childhood home after the death of their estranged father.  Donny wants revenge on his failure of a life.  Des is obsessed with a figurine that looks like his long-dead mother.  Margaret, their stepmother, wants them gone… Then things get really ugly.
Heartbreaking and ridiculous, sympathetic and cruel, resonant and provocative, The Boys is an intelligent and poignant black comedy that hits right where it hurts.
