Plots(1)
Privileged law student and all round good guy Harper (Tye Sheridan) suspects his stepfather, Vincent (Stephen Moyer) of causing the car crash that landed his mother in hospital. Even worse, while she lays in a coma, Harper believes Vincent is cheating on her. Feeling powerless and frustrated he looks to drown his sorrows in a seedy bar and ends up meeting redneck Johnny Ray (Emory Cohen). A drunken conversation about choices and action takes a sudden turn with Johnny offering to "take care" of Vincent for a cool $20,000. Detour takes off when the next morning, a hungover Harper finds Johnny on his doorstep, ready to put their "plan" into action. He doesn't remember agreeing to the deal but Johnny leaves him no way out. Along for the ride is Cherry (Bel Powley) Johnny's partner in crime. They head off on the tense road trip to Las Vegas to find Vincent, with Johnny calling all the shots. Or is he? This sinister "Sliding Doors" takes more than a few surprise turns and will keep you guessing until the very end. (Icon Home Entertainment)
