Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The New Tenants is a 2009 short film (20 minutes) from Denmark, directed by Joachim Beck, written by Anders Thomas Jensen.Despite the fact that the film was made in Denmark, all the dialogue is in English. Pete and Frank are a gay couple who have just moved into their new apartment the day before. They are sitting at the dinner table having a rather strained conversation when the old lady who lives downstairs knocks on the door. She asks for flour so she can make her granddaughter some cinnamon buns, and then as a casual aside reveals some surprising news: Pete and Frank's apartment was the scene of a recent triple homicide. It seems that someone murdered the previous occupant, a man named Jerry, and then killed two other neighbors when they arrived to check out the commotion.Pete and Frank don't even have time to digest this shocking news when a succession of strangers visit the apartment. First, there's Jan (Vincent D'Onofrio), who seems to believe Jerry had sex with his wife Irene, and veers between weepy self-pity and terrifying rage. Next comes Zelko (Kevin Corrigan), a scary drug dealer who obviously is the killer, and seems to believe that Jerry stole a kilo of heroin belonging to him. Last but definitely not least, Irene—Jan's wife, and as it turns out also the old lady's granddaughter—shows up at a very opportune moment.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

Black Comedy: The blackest, as Pete and Frank can do little but sit in goggle-eyed astonishment as a series of bodies pile up in their apartment. | |

Big Damn Heroes | |
| The New Tenants / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Big Damn Heroes: Namely, Irene, who comes in unseen, picks up the tire iron from her dead husband's hand, and cracks Zelko's skull with it. Of course, the fact that she was high off her grandma's heroin cinnamon buns helped hold down the fear. | |
