Bayview Entertainment announced this past week that writer/director Steven R. Monroe’s haunting action/thriller, MoniKa, will be available on DVD on June 21.
Reagan (Jason Wiles — Sunny Daze, The Stepfather, Zodiac) is drifting, that’s pretty clear from Monroe’s introduction to our “hero” of the story. The phone rings, it is his buddy “Double” (played by C. Thomas Howell), with an invitation to jet over to his digs in Nevada and meet the incredibly sexy sister of the woman he is dating. Hang out, have a good time, get yourself straight … and meet the sister, Monika. How can you say no to that?
Las Vegas, sin city, a place where the action never stops. Reagan arrives, but before he can be properly introduced by “Double,” he bumps into Monika (played by Cerina Vincent — as Marcy in Cabin Fever, plus such films as It Waits, Tag, Killing Eleanor) … ambush perhaps? It doesn’t matter, she is everything that “Double” billed her as. In fact, before the sun comes up the next day our boy Reagan has fallen in love with the incredibly sexy and beautiful Monika.
When he awakes the next morning (you fill in the blanks as to what happened the night before), he finds “Double,” who informs him that his chances of hooking up with Monika have dropped to zero as she was murdered by the notorious Eli (Andrew Howard), a drug kingpin, at the hands of his stooge, Terry Jo (Jeff Branson) before — yes, BEFORE — Reagan arrived in Las Vegas.
Hello, then who was that sexy and very attractive woman that he was having the time of his life with last night. In turns out, it was Monika. And indeed, Monika is dead!!
Filmmaker Steven R Monroe serves up a genre-bending thriller. Ghost story, revenge thriller, love story … and more. How it all works out? Well, we are not giving that away … June 21 on DVD from Bayview Entertainment to find out if Reagan has found true love!!
