Crime, unemployment, riot's and mayhem are a daily routine in this once idyllic community. One part Orwellian nightmare and one part generic action flick, this film tells the story of a community's transformation from "Village" to crime scene all in the name of economic development. The film’s socio-political commentary is interesting enough for viewers to forget the otherwise generic plot. Due in theatres Winter 2003.

3/22/02 It just seems, for historical reasons, we may want to leave one or two deer for viewing, of course for safety reasons we could keep the pair high fenced in a zoo-like display at city park, or better yet at the Lakeway Historical Society site. Residents and visitors alike could then observe "up close" one of the amenities that originally drew people to this community.
