The Bad Batch

Arlen is exiled to a sprawling desert landscape in Texas, where society’s undesirables, known as the 'bad batch,' are forced to survive alone. This barren land signifies a loss of American laws and citizenship, leaving them to fend for themselves in a lawless environment.

Shortly after her arrival, Arlen is abducted by two women who transport her in a golf cart. Upon regaining consciousness, she finds herself chained and at the mercy of her captors.

In a horrifying act, one of Arlen's captors brutally amputates her right arm and leg. This traumatic incident marks a turning point in her struggle for survival, pushing her to fight back against her harrowing fate.

Arlen cleverly deceives her captor, enabling her to escape captivity. Though she manages to flee while crawling on a skateboard, the journey ahead remains fraught with danger.

After her escape, Arlen encounters a mute hermit who rescues her from the unforgiving desert. He takes her to a makeshift community known as Comfort, where she begins to find a semblance of safety.

Five months later, Arlen has adapted to life in Comfort with a prosthetic leg, enjoying the community's vibrant atmosphere filled with all-night raves. She has begun to heal, both physically and emotionally, from her traumatic past.

Driven by her past encounters, Arlen ventures into the desert with a pistol to investigate a suspicious golf cart. Her quest leads her to confront and kill a woman she believes is linked to the cannibal community.

Miami Man, the leader of the cannibals and father to a little girl, begins searching for his daughter after witnessing the murder of the woman. His journey intertwines with Arlen's as they both seek answers in a lawless world.

During a rave hosted by The Dream, Arlen consumes a hallucinogenic substance that disorients her. In the chaos, she loses track of Honey, Miami Man's daughter, who is subsequently taken into the enigmatic leader's care.

In the desert, Arlen is confronted by Miami Man, who threatens her life unless she can produce his daughter. This intense encounter lays the foundation for an unexpected camaraderie between them.

As Miami Man shares his tragic backstory about being an illegal immigrant from Cuba, Arlen grows closer to him. Their bond deepens as they navigate the complexities of survival in a harsh environment.

Their newfound connection is abruptly shattered when another man shoots Miami Man in the chest. This shocking moment forces Arlen to return to Comfort with a heavy heart, still searching for Honey.

Arlen discovers Honey living in a mansion owned by The Dream, surrounded by a group of young pregnant women. As she learns of the dark secrets of Comfort, she plans a daring mission to rescue Honey and escape.

After infiltrating The Dream's harem, Arlen successfully extracts Honey and escapes in a golf cart. Their reunion with Miami Man marks a bittersweet moment filled with hope for a better future.

In their emotional reunion, Arlen, Miami Man, and Honey share a moment of peace around a fire, contemplating their new life together. As they bond over dinner, they hint at the potential for a shared future outside of Comfort.
