Synopsis
Action, crime, drama, romance. Jesse Lujack is a dim-witted car thief who goes too far one night in the Mojave desert and accidentally shoots a cop. Fleeing to Los Angeles, he finds his picture soon splashed all over the newspaper and TV news. With the police closing in, his only chance is to escape to Mexico. He needs money, though, and he needs his girl - the beautiful French architecture student, Monica. Although serious and ambitious, she is not immune - at least for a time - to Jesse's reckless charm. Jesse, with a broken heart tattooed on his chest and a devotion to Silver Surfer comic books, with Monica as his duplicitous siren, is on a fast-track to hell.
