Layin' Low

Synopsis

On the highway of life, Jerry's at a dead-end. Unemployed and still living at home with his parents, this thirty-three year old loser has no drive to better his life. That's all about to change. A fateful drug deal gone bad transforms Jerry overnight into the cop's number one murder suspect and the mob's number one target. With a sack full of drugs and a budding romance at stake, Jerry could get a life... or lose it. Either way, it will be the ride of his life.
