Synopsis/Details
In a run-down seaside town in the North West of England an aging prostitute is given five days by her ruthless pimp, to pay back the money she owes him or run a deadly gauntlet down the Golden Mile on Blackpool's promenade. Over the five days she's visited by her pimp's henchmen, a gang of funhouse monsters saved from a fire decades earlier, who remind her of her obligation to their boss.
When a chance encounter with a local restaurant owner brings the two of them together, she is forced to confront her past and face the future head on. Her plans are impeded when an old friend betrays her, leaving Amy only one option... to run The Golden Mile Gauntlet!
