What happens

Searchers 2.0 is a 2007 Western road film directed by Alex Cox. It stars Del Zamora and Ed Pansullo. Described by Cox as a "microfeature," it was shot on digital video in 10 days for a budget of $180,000. Lacking distribution, it featured a very limited theatrical run of one-night showings at various theaters throughout 2007 and 2008, followed by its premiere on BBC in the UK, and eventual DVD release in Japan and North America. The film marks Cox's return to the comedy genre, his first since Straight to Hell, 20 years prior. In the film, two former child actors seek revenge against a screenwriter who had violently abused them during their childhood. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
