Davis Lowe is looking for that fabled BIG BREAK in Hollywood, but keeps finding only second unit work, taking the jobs the real directors can't-or won't-do. Together with his cameraman Jared Mane and film editor Terrence "Otter" Ottman, he runs a tiny, independent production studio off (far off) the Sunset Strip, where the trio scrounges for crumbs and Davis puts off marrying the lovely struggling actress Susan Campbell. Enter Torsten Gross: enigmatic German director whose violent movies seem a little too real for Davis and his crew. After signing on to work for the filmmaker and his brutal leading man Lars Krieg on a horror flick, the boys are faced with a rash of actress suicides and a police investigation in the midst of a movie shoot unlike anything Hollywood could dream up. Now Davis must race to save those he cares about from the clutches of a man who will stop at nothing to finish production, as he unravels a mystery that will have him doubting the art of filmmaking...and reality itself.
