A struggling filmmaker pushed to the edge of sanity by public demand for blood and nudity finds the key to making a successful film comes with a hefty price tag in this shocking tale of independent moviemaking from director Roderick E. Stevens. Tyler Scott is a director with a vision -- unfortunately that vision is devoid of all the lurid and salacious components that spur on sales at the box office. Warned by his primary investor that he will have to inject his film with a heavy dose of sex and violence, Tyler later turns on his camera when the moneyman's thuggish henchmen arrive to rough him up. Now, having finally captured the violence that he had previously found so intolerable, the formerly passive director begins to realize just how far he must go in order to truly satisfy an increasingly desensitized audience.
