Overview

Ghost-ridden and on his death bed, professional assassin Jack Lacy arrives in Santa Fe and enlists his old Marine buddy Antonio Blake and former Santa Fe Police detective Fernando Lopez to help him obtain a burial site near his friend Dennis Hopper's grave in Jesus Nazareno Cemetery outside Taos. Blake and Lopez take Lacy up to the haunted Mabel Lodge Luhan House in Taos and arrange for a local curandera to conduct a crossover ceremony so Lacy can join the ghost of Dennis Hopper. After Lacy dies and the ceremony is performed, Lacy's body disappears, snatched by a couple of local hoodlums who try to ransom the body. Blake and Lopez have to use all their wits and brawn to retrieve Lacy's body and give it a proper send-off at Jesus Nazareno Cemetery.
