Leaving their New Jersey home to capture the existence of space aliens on camera -- and to collect a $1 million prize -- the Ganes clan vanishes and is never heard from again. Shot in the vein of The Blair Witch Project with an improvised script and a premise that the movie is compiled from "recovered" footage filmed by the Ganes family, this 2003 comedy lampoons two of America's favorite obsessions: money and UFOs.

While riding the bus one day, night watchman Jack Crawford gets distracted by a beautiful girl and has his gun stolen. To get it back, he enlists the help of local wise guy Eddie, and their search reveals the bizarre characters lurking in the strange underworld of a sleepy New Jersey suburb.
