Cartel, 1882
Horace Longstreet operates the most brutal drug empires in the south, dealing in peyote, cocoa leaves, laudanum and opium. When he learns a young transporter known as the 'Cat' has been skimming profits, he enlists the aid of a Pinkerton detective, now deep in the bottle and dying of tuberculosis. Against his will, Tyrone Burke must kill or capture the young offender, but the Cat has many lives and leads his pursuer or a 'Wizard of Oz'-type journey through the most dangerous and perverse opium dens, cat-houses and drag queen lairs in the 1880's south. In the end, however, is the Cat actually running for his life or has the hunted now become the hunter? A startling, final confrontation brings two forces of extreme evil face to face, gun to gun, and the result may change the entire direction of the future.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a hallucinatory revisionist western, relying on the dynamic between a dying pursuer and an elusive target. It explores the perverse underbelly of a rapidly changing era, where justice and morality are commodities for trade.
What lingers after the final shot is the thick, atmospheric dread of a world corrupt to its core. The confrontation promised is less a shootout and more a philosophical reckoning between mirrored evils. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Chuck Walker
Best Watched
Watch in a dim room, allowing its deliberate, opium-dream pace to fully absorb you. A must for fans of atmospheric, genre-bending westerns.
