A grotesque, deliberately trashy horror-comedy that revels in body horror and social decay while maintaining a darkly comedic tone about the disposable underclass.

A group of hobos begin melting into multicolored piles of goo after drinking sixty-year-old liquor. At the same time, the psychotic Vietnam War vet who rules the hobo camp snaps and begins killing at random. Two brothers set out to stop the liquor and the killer.
