Johnny Dennis pays the price of fame in this tough tale of a troubled young actor in Tinseltown. Preoccupied with fast cars, fast women and his own death, Johnny is unable to cope with the ever-increasing pressures of his own success. Infatuated with one of his fans, Johnny is tempted by his alluring manager, who seems to want more than just a business relationship.
After a jealous rival goads him into a vicious fistfight, Johnny, confused and bleeding, races through the back-streets of a dark Hollywood night, searching for answers. Loosely based on the life of James Dean, Lost, Lonely and Vicious is an unflinching look into the mind and moods of a brooding 1950's rebel.
