Outside Ozona Movie Review 1998

Three sets of couples listen to a ranting all-night DJ (Taj Mahal) as they drive through the desolate Southwest. Wit Roy (Pollak) is an unemployed circus clown driving with his ex-stripper girlfriend, Earlene (Miller), trucker Odell Parks (Forster) comes to the aid of stranded Reba Twosalt (Walker) and her grandmother, while feuding sisters Marcy (Fenn) and Bonnie (Styne) are driving to their father's funeral. Oh yeah, there's also a backroads serial killer on the loose. Looks good but doesn't make much of an impression.
