AMERICAN PERFEKT (1999)

Plot
Off-beat road movie with quirky characters, a dash of dark, dark humour and a generous dollop of designer violence. Airhead Amanda Plummer(Pulp Fiction, The Fisher King) sets off for a meeting with her waster sister Fairuza Balk, but winds up having a run-in with sinister con-man David Thewlis. Things go from bad to worse when she hooks up with a decidedly unbalanced psychiatrist who makes life or death decisions by tossing a coin, and as the tension mounts, so does the body count. Small but perfectly formed.
