At first, it seems that José (Brian Villalobos) has gone slightly off the hook, what with him not sleeping for days and acting more and more erratic - worrying enough for his wife Lucy (Lori Kovacevich) and his sisters Vicky (Federica Estaba Rangel) and Sarah (Sarah Jack) to try an intervention ... unsuccessfully so, as he's really just suffering from insomnia. Thing is, soon more and more people in town are suffering from insomnia as well, and they start to do crazy things, worst of all Sarah's boyfriend Trent (Scotty Walker), who beats her up so badly that she makes an escape to José's place where she ultimately dies. Eventually, it turns out that the local water supply is polluted with meth, and it's not long until all the bottled water in town is sold out. So José and Lucy team up with Vicky and her girlfriend Lisa (Stephanie Slayton) to first try to duck it through the water crisis with the little water they were able to secure, and when that runs out they're looking for a watering hole in the vicinity. Unfortunately, they aren't the only ones who've had that idea, and some people use the water shortage for their own gain, and violently so ...

An enjoyably weird little thriller that sure doesn't give its game away too early and seems to change direction quite a few times while spinning its yarn - which actually works quite well in the movie's context as it adds layers and depth to the story. And a directorial effort that at times is positively unnerving really serves the movie well, while a solid ensemble cast manages to keep things relatable throughout despite the rather unusual situations their characters get into. And all of this results in pretty cool, decidedly non-mainstream genre entertainment.
