Marianna (Maria Aceves) gets a phone call about her kidnapped brother. She needs to pick up a "package" at the 444 marker on Route 66, which seems significant, but isn't. We discover a guy is missing from "the base" and a drunk (Joshua DesRoches) gets a phone call and turns into a Manchurian assassin. The "package" turns out to be John, you can call me Chris, (Clint Glenn Hummel) who is light on memory. We also get glimpses of a man ( Josiah D. Lee) wearing a plastic face shield with lights who goes inside people's heads and communicates with them....some people...and he also tracks GPS stuff. Michael Madsen rides around in a stretch limo using the phone, taking about the coven. There is a guy called Rook (Vince Lozano) who calls John on the phone, whomsoever phone he happens to be nearby.
The film has a number of flaws. First off it is low budget and suffers from every aspect of a low budget. I have no idea what that stuff is on the DVD cover. The acting was very bad. Maria Aceves was laughable. The direction and editing was haphazard. You get half and idea what is going on half way through the film, a full explanation at the end, almost. It wants to be a mystery yet the title could be considered a plot spoiler. The film was released originally as " Nomad. The Beginning" in 2013 in Japan and appears to be the first in a low budget series, one that looks like it is not going to be made unless a bunch of people buy or rent this stinker.
Now the premise behind the film is good and would appeal to Roswell conspiracy buffs had the production had just one good redeeming quality to write about other than a bunch of people traveling on the road looking for an acting school. The film takes place in New Mexico, yet Marianna drives around in a Chevy Blazer with Pennsylvania plates. What was that all about? I mean how much can a New Mexico plate cost?
