Plot

The movie starts out at a bar in the desert. The people in the bar are all having a good time when a man covered in blood enters through the door. He tells everyone that they are in big trouble, but no one really heeds his warning until he exposes the head of a vicious looking monster. He is promptly decapitated by one of the monsters, and the young girl known only as "Honey Pie" is showered from head to toe in blood.


Following this, a woman bursts through the door and is revealed to be the recently deceased man's wife. After a brief sentimental moment between the wife and her late husband, they begin boarding up the windows in the bar, which then results in the military guy getting killed. A smaller monster than the ones previously seen bursts through the uncovered window and begins incapacitating the various people inside the bar, starting with the woman named "Harley Mom", who has one of her legs sawed off at the knee. It is assumed she then dies from massive blood loss.


After she is taken out, the monster disappears, only for it to be found humping one of the deer heads nailed to the wall. A shotgun blast promptly removes the deer head and monster from the wall and the monster then drops into a refrigerator, which is then sealed shut, trapping the monster inside it.


Following this, most of the windows are boarded up and the bar patrons are given a moment of peace. The only phone however, has been hit by a stray shotgun blast, and is rendered useless. After a short breather, the woman known as Tuffy suddenly realizes that while most people are presumably safe downstairs, her son is still upstairs, and she bolts upstairs to get him.


he kid is quickly found, and all rejoice, until the boy is pulled through the window and eaten by one of the monsters, leaving only his sneakers behind. Tuffy is now incapacitated by grief,and the monster then vomits a stream of slime at "Beer Guy", who is hit, and falls over, and is then hit again as he attempts to stand up.As the remaining people regroup downstairs, it is revealed that the slime has a decomposing effect and "Beer Guy" is slowly overcome by its affects.


Meanwhile, "Honey Pie" begins washing off the blood and has to take off her clothes, much to the amusement of "Hot Wheels" and "Bozo". Following this is an attempt to scare off the monsters by killing what is now revealed to be a baby monster and hanging it outside. This results in 2 things. 1) The monsters quickly have sex and reproduce 2 offspring in a matter of seconds and 2) they begin to attack the pub with renewed fury.


After many attacks and ultimately, a fight to the death between the last remaining humans and monsters, only 4 people survive, "Tuffy"/"Heroine 2", "Hot Wheels", "Bozo", and it is assumed that "Honey Pie" managed to escape. "Grandma" is thought to survive but in the last second is seen being attacked by one of the remaining monsters.

Trivia

This movie tries not to be a conventional horror film in the sense that it implies who is going to die in the movie. For example, under Cody's tagline, it states that he is a precious little child that will outlive everyone, but he is promptly slaughtered. Also, it assumed that the Hero will live because he is the Hero, but he then gets decapitated minutes after his introduction.
