A totally twisted, deep-fried Texas redneck trailer park murder story. Twenty-two-year-old Chris Smith is a drug dealer down on his luck, but things are about to go from bad to worse when he hires the unexpectedly charming hit man, Killer Joe, to murder his own mother for her $50,000 life insurance policy. With barely a dollar to his name, Chris agrees to offer up his younger sister, Dottie, as sexual collateral in exchange for Joe’s services until he receives the insurance money. That is, if it ever does come in. English spoken.
