If you are able to cast aside the moral implications of creating a comedy( albeit a pitch black one) out of relatively recent real life tragic events than you'll find one of the 90's(and British cinema's) most underrated offerings. The Young Poisoner's Handbook tells the 'true' story of a very sick and twisted young man(brilliantly played by Hugh O'Connor) in appropriately sick and twisted fashion. If the Coen Brothers where British you could imagine them producing something along these lines. Indeed Benjamin Ross's debut feature is so accomplished and idiosyncratic you find yourself wondering why he hasn't a long list of features under his belt. Oh well, he has this one and it's great. Seek it out!
