Violet is an unlikely drug lord who deals meth out of a small town in California with the help of three men who have more brown than brains. But neither Violet nor her partners in crime imagined they would have to reckon with Rawley Wade (Fred Dryer), the local sheriff who keeps a close eye on illegal activities in the area.
As Wade swings into action to put the drug ring behind bars, he discovers a multiple murderer is also on the loose, leaving behind a trail of bodies without rhyme or reason.
Big-time crime invades a sleepy California community in this action-drama from star and director Fred Dryer (TV's ''Hunter'').
Also starring Greg Crooks, Gregory Scott Cummins, Chad Todhunter, Diane Delano, Shawn Huff, Christopher Neame, Steve Reevis, Geoffrey Lewis, Tim Thomerson

Buck Sanders

Oscar-nominated composer Buck Sanders has carved out a niche as one of Hollywood's top musical experimenters, and as Marco Beltrami's right-hand man on nearly twenty years' worth of prestige films and genre classics.
From horror standouts (Resident Evil, The Woman in Black) to modern westerns (3:10 To Yuma, The Homesman), from sci-fi (I, Robot) to mysteries (Knowing), zombies (Warm Bodies, World War Z), and family dramas (Soul Surfer) to heart-clenching war films (The Hurt Locker), he and Beltrami have forged a musical partnership that has won accolades and the loyalty of such filmmakers as Tommy Lee Jones, Wes Craven, James Mangold, Joon-ho Bong, and Roland Joffé.
In 2010, Sanders and Beltrami received an Oscar nomination for their spare, searing music for The Hurt Locker, which took their integration of sound effects and narrative atmosphere to a new level.

Sanders grew up in South Carolina, and was drawn to experimental music (and film scores) from an early age. He played guitar in a high school band and continued after moving to Los Angeles, where he studied guitar performance at UCLA.
He was working at a laserdisc store in West LA when he met Beltrami, and rapidly went from 'helper' to invaluable co-conspirator.
Sanders' unique role in the team is bringing a technological wizardry and an insatiable curiosity for manipulating and inventing sounds (as he did on The Homesman -building an enormous, outdoor wind harp and recording piano sounds underwater).
'I'm not surprised I gravitated to film music,' Sanders says, 'because it allows for so much experimentation, but gives the strict, dynamic parameters of a film's personality.
For me, giving films unique, handcrafted sounds is just as important to the melodic and harmonic decisions we make during the compositional process.'
