Alien at the Movies

The Baker

The Butcher, the Baker, & the Dry Cleaner, but where is the Candlestick Maker?

When a father comes across some ill gotten gains, he endangers his nonverbal daughter. The daughter & her grandpa the baker (Ron Perlman) go on a road trip looking for the missing dad. With the bad guys & the cops in pursuit, a bloody trail of bodies start to mount up. The plot is fairly transparent once you realize the bonding & the ordinary baker has some skills & a mysterious past. Harvey Keitel has a small supporting role amongst the googles, the pinks, & the loaf of bread. If you leave before the credits, you might a possible hint of one more final moment.
