Synopsis:

Dead on Arrival follows pharmaceutical sales rep Sam (Billy Lynn) as he visits a small town in Louisiana to close the business deal of a lifetime. Dead on Arrival is inspired by the 1950’s classic noir thriller D.O.A. starring Edmond O’Brien and features a special guest appearance from his daughter Maria O’Brien.

Sam finds himself in a dark world of corruption and murder when he is poisoned with no antidote to save his life. Desperate for answers, with only 24 hours to live, Sam turns to local girl Jesse (Christa B. Allen). On the run, caught in a deadly vertigo with no one to trust, Sam and Jesse find themselves running from police detectives, the mob and a dirty sheriff who wants them dead.
