A darkly comedic satire that mines absurdist humor from the collision between suburban perfectionism and murderous impulse, treating serial killing as a punchline rather than a source of dread.

Beverly is the perfect happy homemaker, along with her doting husband and two children, but this nuclear family just might explode when her fascination with serial killers collides with her ever-so-proper code of ethics.
