Movie Synopsis:
Red Rock West is an undersung neo-noir classic that revolves around ex marine Michael, who finds himself bizarrely involved in a murder plot triangle in Red Rock West. Due to a leg injury, Michael has trouble finding work and arrives in Red Rock West ready to take on any kind of job, ending up mistakenly employed as a hitman and embroiled in a sordid husband and wife battle. Desperate for some money but trying to do the right thing, Michael warns the wife, Suzanne, of her husband Wayne’s intention to kill her, but she poses a tempting counter offer to kill her husband instead.

Michael tries to leave Red Rock but is involved in an accident, hitting someone with his car and takes them to the local hospital. He soon becomes victim of Wayne’s ways who also turns out to be the local sheriff; and upon becoming romantically involved with Suzanne, with the intention they will run away from Red Rock together, helps her to recover a huge amount of money she has stashed in Wayne’s office. In the meantime, the real hitman, Lyle, has arrived in Red Rock and Wayne has other ideas for Michael and Suzanne. But as the plot twists and turns, it becomes clear just who can, and cannot, be trusted.
