Bill Pullman (Lake Placid, Independence Day, Lost Highway) and Julia Ormond (First Knight) are FBI agents who turn up at Michael Ironside’s (Terminator Salvation, Hardwired, Scanners) Sante Fe police station to investigate a recent highway bloodbath. There are three survivors of the incident, Kent Harper as a dodgy local cop, Pell James (Fanboys) as a skanky crack whore, and 8 year old Ryan Simpkins, each with their own version of what happened.
Jennifer Lynch (daughter of David) writes and directs her second movie, and shows the artistic flair of her father, but without the overwhelming and convoluted weirdness. Lynch takes the often used scenario of conflicting stories and makes it her own with unusual and well defined characters, surprise twists, clever dialogue, and black humour.
