==Synopsis== |
|||
''Smoked'' details the misfortunes of spoken word trio the ''Suicide Kings'' ([[Jamie DeWolf]], Geoff Trenchard, Rupert Estanislao), who find themselves broke, and homeless when they become victims of burglary and arson. In their desperation, they concoct a half-baked plan to rob an Oakland, CA medical marijuana dispensary, posing as police officers. The raid appears successful until they discover the owner is notorious crack kingpin Tyrone Shank (Abdul Kenyatta). In retribution, Shank dispatches mercenary killers, The Four Horsemen (Jaylee Alde, Asher Kennedy, Wayne Dean, & Ninja). The pursuit sends a wave of violence across Oakland as the Suicide Kings struggle to escape a bizarre and dangerous criminal underworld. |

==Reception== |

It's also piss-your-pants hilarious, maddeningly nihilistic, oddly sentimental, weirdly moral, extremely silly, and insanely energetic."<ref>{{cite web|title=Rio Grind Film Fest: Smoked is mean, bloody, and demented|url=http://www.straight.com/movies/rio-grind-film-fest-smoked-mean-bloody-and-demented|publisher=Straight|accessdate=20 December 2012}}</ref> |
