Sean and David are just a couple of guys going on a road-trip/vacation through South Florida. But they're about to be sucked into a wild manhunt for a suitcase containing millions, the profits of a brutal form of insurance fraud, a suitcase which, unbeknownst to them, has been hidden in their Chrysler.
The wide array of criminals and degenerates pursuing them is staggering, including: -Serge A. Storms, a manic-depressive, sociopathic spree-killer and Florida history buff, the planner of the fraud. -Sharon Rhodes, a murderous stripper, and "Coleman" Bunsen, a drug-addled petty criminal, Serge's doped-up partners-in-crime. -Charles Saffron, drug-money-launderer and owner of the insurance company from which the cash was scammed by drunken dentist George Veale, Serge's unwilling accomplice. -Mo Grenadine, bigoted private eye, talk-show host, state senator, and private investigator. -Dar-Dar, Saffron's ruthless, death-metal singing hitman. -A trio of Uzbekistanian drug-smuggler pretending to be Latins, the money's true owners. All these misfits come together in Key West for a battle royale that leaves few survivors for the sequel. | ||
