Herky Jerky

Who's going to come to your rescue after you've been shot, robbed of $80,000 and left to cure like jerky in the Mojave Desert? If you're hapless surfer and rookie real estate agent Danny Collins, your only hope is Carla Pereira, a mystery woman fresh out of prison and the owner of the car you "borrowed" to run the little errand that's gotten you into such big trouble. Intrigued by the possibility of a payday of her own, Carla concocts a risky plan to rip off Danny's assailant, DeWayne Oakes, a violent bodybuilder and wannabe male dancer, who won't find Carla as easy to handle as Danny. Fast-paced and wickedly funny, Herky Jerky is a killer thrill ride across a California landscape peopled by a zany cast of dreamers and schemers, all trying to disprove the notion that crime doesn't pay.
