Benny gives Charlie a last chance to clear his ‘debt’ by collecting money from a rival, but when Archie (Myles Jeffrey, ‘Face Off’) decides to follow his father into a rival gangster’s speakeasy, a series of bizarre events take place culminating in them fleeing…. leaving behind the unanswered question, who’s got the money?
They head south to a dustbowl town where Charlie plans to repay his debt by stealing money from a bootleggin business run by Ugly Jim McCrae (Ron Perlman, ‘Beauty and the Beast’).
Charlie (Ted King, ‘Timecop’) soon realises things won’t be that easy however and is forced into taking a teaching job as ‘cover’ so bringing father and son closer.
When a beautiful widowed mother, Ellen Heaven (Mia Sara, ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off) takes offence at the new ‘teacher’, she does all she can to get him thrown out of town.
Torn between their responsibilities and their attraction to each other; passions are awoken and Charlie and Ellen finally fall in love……… with some help from their children.
Unfortunately, the two revengeful mob bosses have not forgotten Charlie and arrive in town to settle scores
Everything is put at stake in a climax as rapid-fire and explosive as the mobsters machine guns themselves.
