 | Script excerpt | |
Synopsis:
In the Mojave, all is not what it seems and what you don't know will kill
you. Death and Taxes is a nonstop psychological cat and mouse game
that will keep you guessing till the very last frame.
Mix a pair of philosophical Russian arms dealers with two ex-cons who
have nothing in common but a mysterious, silver briefcase they’ve been
hired to deliver. Add a drug deal gone from bad to psychotic.
Sprinkle throughout a circus of characters each more bizarre than the
other. Stir in multiple twists and turns of plot and you have a mind-
bending string of double-triple crosses on one hot day in the Mojave
Desert.
Death & Taxes tells the tale of the foxy Black criminal Icarus, a hard
edged ex-convict with long legs and a short temper. A courier for an
unnamed crime king, she is paired up with Prometheus, a whining,
weight lifting Neo-Nazi fresh out of the joint.
Their Mission: Cross The Mojave desert to exchange briefcases with the
ominous Russians.
But everyone seems to have his own plan and nothing is as it appears.
Along the way Icarus and Prometheus are beset by a wandering,
aluminum foil-wearing homeless wacko, a naked hitchhiker with a Jesus
complex who’s recently been abducted by extraterrestrials, a beautiful
blonde corpse with ulterior motives, and more plot twists and turns than
a winding, desert road snaking through the sun-bleached Badlands.
Set against the harshly beautiful backdrop of The Mojave Desert, Death
& Taxes explores themes of crime and punishment, betrayal and
revenge, and the going rate for a hand held Nuclear Device.
Fast-paced action, off-beat humor, murderous betrayals, and sexy
intrigue make Death & Taxes a suspenseful, dark, comic thriller that’ll
leave audiences on the edge of their seats wondering who will be the last
man or woman standing.
