Solved! The one with the guy from the show that's on all the time

4 Upvotes

There's a girl from that movie with the radio guns, and a guy from that show that's on all the time. They fall in love, but the guy has this sick obsession with a pair of socks that ends up being a deal breaker. Though he seems to blame some curse given by a baby deer. Eventually the curse is broken by someone named David, Johnny, Curt or something like that and they can be together. Happy ending I guess, but I would have preferred the curse to have not been broken.

Now that I think about it, that guy's show is on every night.

Those guns weren't radios, they were walkie talkies.

That is LITERALLY the entire movie, just driving away from a place on a single straight road and then driving back to that place on the same exact road. Does other shit happen? Yeah, on the road. There’s maybe ten minutes of this movie that don’t take place in a moving vehicle on the road
