A broke drifter walks into a bar looking for work. Five minutes later, a stranger offers him $10,000 to kill his wife. He accepts. Except there’s one problem. He’s NOT the hitman. Michael Williams has just arrived in a small Wyoming town with almost no money and nowhere to go. Then a wealthy man mistakes him for a professional killer. Instead of correcting him, Michael decides to take the money. Easy money. Until the wife offers him even more to kill her husband instead. Now Michael is stuck between two people who both want the other one dead. And neither of them is telling the truth. Then the REAL hitman arrives. And suddenly Michael realizes he has walked into a game where absolutely nobody is playing fair. Nicolas Cage is young, sweaty and wonderfully chaotic in Red Rock West (1993). Dennis Hopper is completely unhinged. Lara Flynn Boyle brings the perfect femme-fatale energy. And the snowy Wyoming setting makes everything feel even more isolated. One wrong decision. One fake identity. One town full of liars. Red Rock West is the kind of forgotten thriller that makes you wonder how you missed it.
