In what is essentially an inferior remake of Bad Day at Black Rock, Val Kilmer stars as a wounded veteran suffering from PTSD who encounters a missing person/murder mystery in a secretive small town. Written and directed by Adam Marcus (Jason Goes to Hell, Texas Chainsaw), Conspiracy costars Gary Cole and Jennifer Esposito. The 2008 direct-to-DVD flick shifts into action mode when Kilmer is targeted by a shady military contractor - with the third act blatantly rehashing elements from First Blood and High Plains Drifter.
