Plot Summary
Erica (Amanda Fuller) lives rent-free in the local co-op, but spends her nights trawling the bars and beds of Austin. Damaged, emotionally withdrawn, never really connecting with anyone, and sleeping with multiple men is just what she does… until she meets the older and mysterious Nate (Noah Taylor) working in a hardware store, but with an “honorable discharge” from Iraq. Despite his quiet air of danger, Nate’s the only guy who doesn’t seem to want to get her into bed at the first opportunity, and the two form a hesitant bond. But one of Erica’s casual sexual encounters is about to bite back. Franki (Marc Senter) is a young, hot-headed wannabe rock star trying to make it big. Looking after a sick mother and estranged from his long-term girlfriend, he “shared” Erica with his buddies one drunken night. A shocking twist of fate is all it takes to throw his already crazy world into a spin, and in Franki’s eyes there is only one person to blame...

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: An engrossing -- and profoundly distressing -- tale of random connection and specific revenge.
Fresh: Influences of helmers like Larry Clark and Wes Craven are pronounced: The first half is pure montage, foregoing slick visuals so the characters' personalities, coupled with a disturbing stillness, take root.
Fresh: Without giving away too much, I offer two words of advice: Brace yourself.
Rotten: Dim the lights and raise the heat for this sputtering Texas noir, liberally spiced with strip-malls and pool-halls.
Customer Reviews
Hard to Recommend
This movie was excellently cast, directed and acted. The filmaker accomplished what he intended, but I'm not sure if that is a good thing. These characters felt so real. It's shocking, compelling and like the cliche goes, "you can't unwatch it," so be careful. "If you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."
Well that was something
Get ready for a ride in this one. Excellent, engrossing & exhausting as it is disturbing.... Won't given anything away but suffice it to say, this is not for the timid.
Red White and Blue
A very disturbing and disgusting movie.
