The Big Empty

It's an easy gig - low risk, big pay out. Just deliver a blue suitcase to a trucker named Cowboy at a lonely little spot called Baker, out in the desert near Vegas. Hand over the suitcase, get $27,000 cold, hard dollars in return. For struggling, street-bound 30 something actor John Pearson it's like a solid gold gift from God. But when he arrives in Baker, he discovers the Cowboy is missing-in-action, local vixen Ruthie and her mother Stella are inexplicably stirring up the paranoid, alien-obsessed locals against him and an FBI agent wants to question him about a decapitated neighbour, hundreds of missing people and a conspiracy that might literally be out of this world!

    A no brainer

    Pleasant suprise this film. Hadn't heard of it before. Very odd, but stick with it, if nothing else, at the end of the film you'll think back on the story and have a laugh about it. It's a Sunday afternoon film!
