Velma (Courtney Love), a young newly wed, shares a working honeymoon with Norwood (Sy Richardson), a hit-man and bank robber. Norwood and his parents Sims (Joe Strummer) and Willy (Dick Rude) fail in the murder they have been hired to commit, pull a bank heist instead, and flee town. When their misfueled car breaks down, they bury the stolen loot and hike into an almost deserted oilfield settlement. Unfortunately, this nameless village is a hideout of the coffee-addicted McMahon Bandit gang (Kathy Burke, Elvis Costello, Bif Yeager and The Pogues). Tension, fuelled by copious amounts of coffee, mounts as the bank robbers try to keep a low profile and the sultry Velma falls for two of the McMahons. Norwood tries to keep his cool and almost manages... until Dr Farben (Dennis Hopper) and his bodyguard (Grace Jones) arrive...
