The Badger Game is a 2014 comedic thriller film written and directed by Joshua Wagner and Thomas Zambeck.[1] The film centers on a trio of scorned women who conspire to abduct and blackmail a wealthy philanderer. Things go awry when unforeseen complications – and ulterior motives – pit the kidnappers against each other.[2]

The Badger Game had its world premiere at the 2014 Arizona Underground Film Festival[3][4] and had its international premiere at the Twisted Celluloid Film Festival in Cork, Ireland.[5] The film was released on digital VOD by Stadium Media in June 2015, and on Blu-ray and DVD by Intervision Picture Corp in November 2015.[6][7]
