About

In a "Clerks" meets "Sopranos" gangster series, petty criminals operate a shady video rental store. Forget about gallows humor, 24Hr. Rental is black comedy 2 weeks after the execution. 24 HOUR RENTAL follows Tracker (Orzari), a former Mafia boss. Having barely avoided an early retirement in a shallow grave, he now operates a seedy video store. Struggling to stay afloat in the Internet age, Tracker runs his shop as a front for a host of petty crimes-from fencing jewellery to peddling dope cut with Drano and desperation-all in hopes of returning to power.

Tracker (Romano Orzari), a fallen Mafia boss, now operates a seedy video store as a front for a host of petty crimes-from fencing jewelry to peddling dope and illegal porn-all in hopes of returning to power. In the series pilot, Tracker receives a "friendly" visit from his old "colleague"" Khivisto (Vlasta Vrana), head of the Balkan crime family, reminding him of his debts. Back at the store, he makes a deal with a regular supplier and accidentally buys a human finger-along with a big diamond ring-then meets the next generation of Slavic Satanists.

2. The Silent Treatment

Tracker negotiates his debts over an open grave with Junior (Chris Ratz), Khvisto's son, while Jaime (Leslie Seiler) discovers Floyd's (Aaron Berg) cab has turned into a serial killer's basement. Meanwhile, rival video storeowner Paul (Mike Smith) rents a 24 Hour Rental from new employee Sarah (Kate Ross) and gets a receipt that looks like a sex offender's rap sheet.

Tracker (Romano Orzari), Buzz (Michael Biehn), Ace (Adam Kenneth Wilson) and Floyd (Aaron Berg) go to Hollywood Hits to teach Paul (Mike Smith) a lesson. At the video store, Mafia goons looking for Tracker hold Sarah (Kate Ross) and Sam (Marc Senior) hostage.

Tracker (Romano Orzari) meets with his brother the Don (Salvatore Antonio) and is introduced to the mysterious Mistress (Amanda Lisman).

Then, a visit to the doctor results in a very rewarding cleanse.

5. The Tangled Web We Weave

29m

With Junior (Chrs Ratz) in possession of the Mistress' ring as collateral for Tracker's gambling debts, Tracker (Romano Orzari) sends Ace (Adam Kenneth Wilson) on a hunt for a replacement finger. Meanwhile, the video store gets a visit from Paul-and the police, hot on the trail of an illegal 24 Hour Rental. But Paul's plan to shut down the store quickly hits a snag.

6. No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

27m

Junior (Chris Ratz) promises to return the ring, but only if Tracker (Romano Orzari) passes a test of loyalty that ends up involving a pimp, a gypsy and a magic bullet. At the video store, Sarah (Kate Ross) is caught with her fingers in the till and Ace (Adam Kenneth Wilson) attempts a new way of cooking meth. And the Don decides retrieving the missing finger won't fill his quota of dismembered body parts.
