Michael (Steve Wandling) dies and goes to hell - which is probably fair enough as he hasn't been exactly a model human being. That said, Michael was sincere about one thing, and that was the relationship with his girlfriend Lana (Zoe Scarborough), which is why it irks him all the more that he has died before he could send her an utterly positive text message, which he was about to when he croaked. So while in hell, in one of the lesser circles, he tries to get permission to still send the message. That's just not as easy as it may sound, as Michael's guide in hell, Chang (Gary Whorley) is a bit useless, his contact (Jae Grace) a little flakey, and this circle's own devil, Horny (Sheri Davis), a little bit too, erm, horny, to get Michael's message across ...

Now this film was quite obviously made on a budget, which is why its locations and the like don't always meet the story's ambitions - but at the same time the film is rich on unusual ideas, off-beat humour and general charm. And an inventive directorial effort that makes the most out of its limitations, and a relatable cast playing colourful characters sure make this a fun ride.
