Search and Destroy by Howard Korder
Directed By: Daniel Eilola
Synopsis:
This dark comedy follows the adventures of Martin Mirkheim who owes the state of Florida $147,000 in back taxes, but this is not where his mind is focused. Instead he is intent on acquiring the film rights to a novel called Daniel Strong, written by Dr. Waxling, a pseudo-religious-type guru. The first part of Martin's journey is spent trying to meet Dr. Waxling, but he is kept away by secretaries and personal assistants. When finally face to face with Waxling, Martin discovers that the good doctor is less interested in any "higher truth" than in getting $500,000 for the film rights. Still consumed by his desire to make the book into a movie, Martin resorts to deceit, blackmail, fraud, extortion and murder to claw his way to success.
"It'll keep you on the edge of your seat. Its evolution, shot through with brilliant gutter language, is vintage stuff, arresting and real…An altogether extraordinary achievement." —LA Times
