A team of inept hitmen (Sy Richardson, Joe Strummer, and Dick Rude) oversleep on the day of their big job and find their target has already fled town. Fearing reprisals from their boss (Jim Jarmusch) they pull a bank job and escape into the desert with Richardson's pregnant girlfriend (Courtney Love). When their car breaks down they seek shelter in a ghost town inhabited by the McMahons (The Pogues, Biff Yeager), a murderous and incestuous clan of gun-crazy coffee addicts. Alex Cox's glorious and anarchic homage to the Spaghetti Western has an all-star cast including Dennis Hopper, Grace Jones, Elvis Costello, Kathy Burke.
