Alternative Key Art
After receiving a confusing letter in the mail one morning indicating that his daughter has been kidnapped, Jim Jenkins (Joseph Graham), the quintessential deadbeat dad and sort of detective, heads out to an unfamiliar address to investigate. He arrives instead to discover two complete strangers (Amy Anderson, John Wessling) amid an seemingly innocuous Craigslist exchange for a suicide sword. Suspicious about this meetup, Jim decides to spy on and harass the formerly unfamiliar apartment dwellers. In the process, the three discover a mysterious and unstable kitchen sink that is revealed to be a time teleportation device that, if understood, could solve all of Jim’s problems with his daughter, ex-wife, and of course the Russians.

WRITER/DIRECTOR BIO
Justin Petty is supplying the film world with challenging lo-fi sci-fi indie comedies from the artistically enigmatic space of Houston, TX. He's been compared to Joel Potrykus with his mentally overtaxed slacker film 'Nothing Really Happens,' but with his second feature “SOMEONE DIES!” (formally titled “DICKHEAD”) Petty gives us his unique take on a comedy of errors, as three farcical characters are faced with the puzzling nature of time travel and...assholicism.
