Jack Perez directed this thriller about New Jersey office worker Walter (Eric Roberts) who quits his job and heads to Santiago, Mexico, to become a writer but instead is thrust into the role of hitman by Jose Guerra (Joaquim De Almeida). However, he finds he can't kill the falsely accused Humberto (Victor Rivers). After a gunfight, Walter manages to vacate a shallow grave in the desert and awakens in a hospital, paralyzed. Wheelchair-bound, he nevertheless sets out on a vengeful journey to find Guerra. Shown at the 1998 Cannes Film Festival. ~ Bhob Stewart, All Movie Guide
