Synopsis

It’s International Elvis Week in Las Vegas, where the strip is flooded by a sea of King wannabes decked out in jumpsuits and sideburns. But five of the impersonators swaggering into the Riviera Hotel are toting heavy weaponry in their guitar cases. It’s the heist of a lifetime, orchestrated by ex-con Michael and his cunning former cellmate, Murphy. The crooked Elvises steal away with $3.2 million, leaving the hotel in ruins and a high body count in their wake.
