The film opens by showcasing the eclectic residents of Small Town, USA. Among the characters is the voluptuous evangelical radio preacher, Eufaula Roop, who scandalously engages in a shocking act with Martin Bormann—right inside a coffin. We also meet a salesman who becomes embroiled in a questionable encounter with a large-breasted housewife, along with the imposing figure of Junkyard Sal set to work in her yard, portrayed by June Mack, who is known for her rather unconventional relationships with her employees.
The plot thickens with the troubled Lamar, who violently assaults his wife, Lavonia, in a shocking display that ends with her retaliating by kicking him where it hurts. As Lamar proceeds to his junkyard job, Lavonia dallies by a nearby lake, where she spots a young boy swimming. Seizing this opportunity, she strips down and launches herself into an unexpected encounter, leaving the boy—who turns out to be just fourteen—caught in her web. Their tumultuous meeting leads to Lavonia overpowering him, introducing a darker twist to the narrative.
As the story unfolds, the wayward salesman pays Lavonia a visit, resulting in another steamy rendezvous. Meanwhile, Lamar, initially dismissive of Junkyard Sal’s proposition for intimacy, finds himself cornered in her office as she appears in enticing lingerie. Forced to comply with her demands due to the threat of job loss, he reluctantly participates in her sexual advances.
Lamar’s journey continues at a bar where Lavonia, disguised as a Mexican stripper named Lola Langusta, drugs his drink, leading him into a motel room where he becomes her unwitting victim. Ever striving for control, Lavonia tests her influence over him, and upon his escape, she continues her escapades by taking on another truck driver.
In a surprising turn, Lamar seeks help from the dentist-cum-marriage counselor, Asa Lavender, resulting in a disastrous dental session where the lines of morality blur even further. Amidst chaos, violence erupts as the characters interact in absurd and disturbing ways, leaving one questioning the very essence of their relationships.
Lamar, desperate for redemption through faith, finds himself at the radio station where Eufaula Roop preaches. When he makes his blood-pumping intentions known—exposing himself in front of her broadcast crew—she abruptly cuts the air, leading him to a baptism that shocks all. Under the pretext of saving him, her actions turn manipulative.
The film crescendos with an unsettling sequence involving Rhett, the young boy, as he finds himself entangled in a web of sexual exploits involving both Eufaula and the narrator’s own wife, underscoring a troubling critique of morality and redemption in small-town America. In an exploration that traverses absurdity and dark humor, the film delves into the intertwined lives of its characters, each seeking fulfillment in their warped reality.
