Wiki.
Eat the Rich is a 1987 British black comedy film directed by Peter Richardson, who also wrote the screenplay with Pete Richens. A co-production between Channel 4 Films, Iron Fist Motion Pictures and Michael White Productions, it features cast members from the popular television series The Comic Strip Presents....
The film stars Lanah Pellay as Alex, Nosher Powell as the Home Secretary, and a number of cameos, including by Miranda Richardson, Nigel Planer, Robbie Coltrane, Rik Mayall, Paul McCartney, Shane MacGowan, Jennifer Saunders, Jimmy Fagg, Kathy Burke, Koo Stark, Sandie Shaw, Dawn French, Bill Wyman, Jools Holland, Hugh Cornwell, Adrian Edmondson, Angela Bowie and Lemmy.
The film initially focuses on a waiter on a high-class restaurant, who is met with constant contempt by the customers. After being fired, he forms an anarchist gang and attacks the restaurant. He starts serving the clients and his former co-workers as food for other rich people. A number of would-be revolutionaries have figured out the waiter's scheme and try to use him in a scheme against their own archenemy, the loutish Home Secretary.
