Synopsis "Killing Christian is a love triangle with murderous intent. It is a dark comedy about the primal things people will do to secure the things they want. Hunter, Faith, and Talon all love Mark Devlin in their own way. When he suddenly calls and says he's changed, they each have hope that he will confess his love and give them the life they've always wanted. That illusion is shattered when he introduces each of them to his new fiance, Christian Wood. Although the three hate each other, they find themselves devising a plan to eliminate their newest competition for the man they want." (direct quote from the movie's website; see below)
