A struggling actress must play the role of a detective in order to save an adorable Maltese puppy from a murderous group of Goth Thugs, a Devilish Dominatrix, and a handsome, lying doctor. When actress/dog walker Samantha Marlowe takes on a dog-napping case that involves her partner getting shot, she must out-wit murderous goths, a devilish Dominatrix, crooked cops, and a handsome, lying doctor, to save a precious Maltese and still make it to her next audition in time. I saw this film at a film festival in Los Angeles and found it completely original and endearing. Laura Lee Bahr, the writer director is a novelist that I was familiar with previously. I was excited to see her first feature film. The story melds together such eclectic elements that trying to fit the film into a genre box becomes an impossible task. Set in Los Angeles with a struggling actress as our main character we follow her on a totally unique journey. Anyone who knows the film industry or Los Angeles will recognize the real life absurdity of both. It's funny first and foremost with great characters but also weaves in threads of suspense and action with a dash of romance. This is the kind of film that finds cult status. Horray for adorable dogs and and girls with guts!
