A darkly comedic thriller that mines tension and absurdity from a hitman's increasingly frantic attempts to dispose of a body while strangers mistake his grim task for an elaborate Halloween costume.

In Los Angeles, on Halloween night, a hitman tries to transport a corpse in plain sight, but people he stumbles upon on the street, believing that his sophisticated appearance is a magnificent disguise, constantly stand in his way to congratulate him.
