A carpenter buckling under the weight of fatherhood, a crumbling marriage, and an expensive mortgage strives to balance his own wants and needs against that of a struggling friend in this story of an ordinary man suffering through uncertain times. To the casual observer, Wayne has everything a man his age could ever want - a large home, healthy children, and a beautiful wife. But lately Wayne has grown tired of the emotional complexities of adulthood. His wife is becoming less stable and the kids seem to control the entire house, two factors that frequently result in Wayne sneaking out to down beers with his newly divorced drinking buddy Leo. Before long, Wayne starts to feel like he's become a casual observer of someone else's miserable existence. Just when it appears that things can't get any worse for Wayne, however, a violent incident prompts him to reassess his idea of the ever-elusive American Dream. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Underground film icon Giuseppe Andrews stars as a sexually frustrated, half-Latino speed dealer whose rampant paranoia is about to get the best of him in director Eric G. Johnson's tense, hallucinogenic thriller Tweek City. Fired from his job at a Bay Area computer company, San Francisco speed slinger Bill Jenson (Andrews) seeks solace in the company of punk-rock porn connoisseur Jerm (Keith Brunsmann) -- a White Trash Debutantes fanatic. Jerm, however, becomes completely useless when he takes Bill to a punk rock concert, then stage dives and severely injures himself -- leaving Bill to fend for himself and to focus on what troubles him the most: the loss of his lifelong love, Sharon (Elizabeth Bogush). Life goes on, though, and these days Sharon is set to marry another man. As the wedding date draws near and Bill's tenuous grip on reality slowly begins to slip, the lovelorn addict embarks on a drug-soaked bender of epic proportions before he sets his sights on the ceremony and determines to stop the union at all costs. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
