Dark Intentions: The Movie (2019)

Writer/Director John Michael Hightower Jr {SONG FOR THE WOUNDED, DOWN IN THE DUMPS} brings to the screen a taut thriller about a man who has been dealt a few bad hands, made some wrong choices and wants forever to find hope, and he does, at a price. Seth Burgess {John Michael Hightower Jr} is a former cop turned private eye suffering from the consequences of his past. Drunk and belligerent, he wallows in self pity and laziness. When out of the blue, comes a request from a well to do business man Rick Stansfield {Colin Ochs- SONG FOR THE WOUNDED, A MAN'S WORLD} asking Seth to locate his "missing" daughter. At first he is reluctant to take on the case not wanting to step on the toes of the police, but agrees when he finds out the daughter, Jessica {Cheyenne Petty- DOWN IN THE DUMPS, THE RISING} was a woman with whom he once had a relationship with. Now on the journey, Seth dives headfirst into a similar world that destroyed him as a cop. He gets in deep with the mob and Jessica's new drug cartel boyfriend, Carlos {Ramy Kebbe- SONG FOR THE WOUNDED, BABY MAMA'S CLUB}. Now under heavy scrutiny from Carlos and random assassins attacking him on the road, Seth reaches out to his old partner, Chris {Tristen Crow- SONG FOR THE WOUNDED, WANDERING HEARTS} the very man who testified against him one year prior. Bound by guilt and a sense of responsibility for Seth's current predicament, Chris joins forces with Seth as they both take Seth's case head on to discover not only where Jessica is but also discovering more about the mysterious Rick Stansfield and his true intentions.
