The movie was produced by David Lynch and directed by daughter Jennifer Lynch who also co-wrote the movie with Kent Harper.

Critics are raving about SURVEILLANCE. Richard Corliss of TIME says, "Think Rashomon meets The Texas Chainsaw Massacre in Twin Peaks ... and you may get on the warped wavelength of this semi-comic parable of social anarchy." Aaron Hillis of VILLAGE VOICE calls SURVEILLANCE, "Deliciously demented." And Geoff Berkshire of METROMIX says "Solid genre thrills with plenty of dark humor. Lynch has clearly learned from her father's knack for crafting eerily unsettling movies."

It's been a hell of a day on the highway.

When Federal Officers Elizabeth Anderson (Julia Ormond) and Sam Hallaway (Bill Pullman) arrive at Captain Billing's office, they have three sets of stories to figure out and a string of vicious murders to consider.

One zealot cop, a strung out junkie and an eight year old girl all sit in testimony to the roadside rampage, but as the Feds begin to expose the fragile little details each witness conceals so carefully with a well practiced lie, they soon discover that uncovering 'the truth' can come at a very big cost.

SURVEILLANCE premieres on HDNet Movies on Wednesday, June 24, at 8:15 p.m. ET and with encore presentations 10:00 p.m. and 11:45 p.m. ET.
