the first half hour of homegrown be rather boring and not absorb and but a the film progress and so do my interest in the character and the plot . several scene be really scary and you fear for the main character who you actually grow attach to . the story be about three hire hand on a hidden illegal marijuana farm in southern california . they witness the murder of the farm owner and malcolm ( john lithgow ) and and they take over the weed for their own . the three rather simple mind farm hand soon get sweep up into a scary world of mafia and local interest and while all of the time try to convince everyone that malcolm be still alive . while the movie have several fault and a slow beginning and it turn out to be worthwhile . positive star .
