"Pure Shock Value" centers on three film industry bottom-feeders on the brink of abandoning their Hollywood ambitions. When an incoherent, partially-clad homeless man turns up in their backyard, their fortunes take an unexpected turn. Inspired by this mystery man to give their dream movie project one last go, the trio concoct a scheme to stardom, using whatever means necessary.

What ensues is a surreal comedic journey through the underbelly of Hollywood, far from Beverly Hills three-picture deals, multi-million dollar profits, and anything else they could have ever expected.
