What Is Mayhem About?

The premise of Mayhem without spoilers.

Dino and Ziggy, two strangers united by a desperate quest, wage a violent campaign through Los Angeles to rescue the women they love—Rachel, who fled, and Misty, who was kidnapped. Their relentless pursuit pits them against pimps, drug dealers and even the police, armed only with a sawn‑off shotgun and a .357 Magnum, turning Hollywood itself into a battlefield.
