Note: I am not able to identify most of the cast of this movie because 1) most of the actors have very generic names, making it hard to find pictures, 2) this film was their only film, 3) there are not character names listed for most of the cast and 4) based on what I saw in the trailer, I’m not sure that watching the movie would help.
