Suburban Drug Lords

Summary There are strange things simmering under the calm facade of a typical suburban town. A drug dealer "The Man", who has been in business a long time doling out different drugs from his charming tree shaded house in Leonia, NJ, has seen better days with better clientele. His business, like his life after a recent divorce, seems to be rolling down hill rapidly, mired in mid-life crisis and confusion. Being the sole caretaker of his 5 year old boy doesn't help. That is the opening premise in this quirky black comedy crime-drama about life and it's sometimes scary vicissitudes. As The Man is shuffling around in his newfound sadness enter The blatantly evil (and funny) Delvecchio Brothers. They have a loopy plan in mind which includes taking over The Man's suburban drug dealing business without his consent. This starts a series of plot twists involving an array of colorful and off-beat New Jersey characters. All of these personalities in this comedy drama of human bungling and desperation have two things in common....they're not happy and they want some kind of change. The Man goes in search of and eventually comes up with a violent plan for survival and puts together a somewhat reluctant posse of fellow bag men to help him try to fulfill it. Then the stuff really hits the fan. Not everyone has a clear purpose in this unique film but everybody thinks they are better then everybody else. Meanwhile nobody's plans come to fruition. A comedy of errors plays out in this eerie tree shaded land of tortured souls each mired in their own mental machinations. Only one character will rise to whatever the top is at the end. That's not a surprise. It's just that the little ones always suffer the most in the long run. View more details

4 stories Soul Man Soft-spoken guitar tuner and roadie Mitch longs to be a guitar player and to have some of the perks of the obnoxious guitar idol he works for, like his pretty, neglected girlfriend. But his luck doesn't turn until he finds a curiosity at a junk shop-sheet music for what is supposedly Jimi Hendrix's last song. Although the aging beatnik who runs the shop warns him that playing the music will summon up the devil, Mitch buys it anyway. When he plays it, he suddenly finds his fortunes improving, thanks in part to the efforts of a new manager, sleek Simon Rathbone. But-surprise, surprise-it isn't all roses from here on out. Cold Turkey Singer, songwriter, and recovering addict Jared is trying to get his act together before his band starts a new tour, but he's finding it hard to write new songs without chemical assistance. Enter an alluring blond, who leads him back to the bottle and into trouble even as she helps him find inspiration again. But who is she, really? (Don't read the cover blurb, or you'll find out way too soon.) Instant Karma Innocent Lara idolizes bad-boy rock star Vince Brava and is convinced that they are soul mates. When she's tapped to join other groupies on his tour bus after a concert, she's delighted at the chance to show Vince how much they have in common. After Vince takes advantage of her innocence, however, she's determined to get revenge;but when she and Vince swap bodies, her vengeance is far more appropriate even than she had planned. Don't Stop Believin' Senatorial candidate Ben Stanton is on the brink of losing the election, to the disgust of his ambitious wife. Ever since he was involved in a car accident in which his young mistress was killed, he's been trailing in the polls. But listening to the CD she made him of his campaign song suddenly takes him back to the moments before the accident. Maybe this time he can change the course of events.
