Brothers Otis and Welford own Grass Monkey Lawn Service and really seem to hate their job and demeaning clientele. Their mass consumption of beer, and fondness of boobs, get them through the day. After finishing a job, Otis overhears a customer bashing them to her friend, so in return, he bashes her head in. Before leaving the scene, Welford takes an owl decoy from the yard as a consolation prize, later naming it Professor Bonaparte. Bonaparte not only talks, but under his demented tutelage, they start killing and robbing their other clients.

The local sheriff knows there's a connection, and keeps a close eye on them, but can't seem to prove anything yet. So, they continue to take lives, desecrate property, and have a run-in with a black superchick, who uses her special powers (her monsterous boobs) to deter them. While Otis is getting smothered in a boob-sandwich (yeah, a great way to go), Welford bashes her brains in with a branch. They also lend a hand in helping their pizza delivery guy get rid of his most annoying and demanding customer, by making a pizza out of him.

In the end, the sheriff takes Bonaparte hostage and finally catches them, but rather than taking them in, he confesses his fanship of their work, and they drink a cold one together.

This film has plenty of boobs, blood, and guts to please the average gorehound, with a notable scene using a garden hose retriever to round up a dude’s intestines, but the stretched humor is a big downfall. I chuckled a few of times, but most of it was unfunny one-liners or situational humor and the typical pissing/pooping/farting gags used to evoke laughter. On a technical note, the filming was steady (no shaky cameras as seen in other low-budget movies) and the picture had very vibrant colors. It’s a movie I would watch again, and maybe after a few beers would find more humorous, but if you aren't a fan of Troma, then you probably won't like it, as it really caters to that style of comedic-horror. But, it looks like it was a lot of fun to make, and I look forward to more Cafe Death productions.

Evil Dead was a double edged sword my friend. Because of its influence we have 5 or so more funny horror movies and 10 million attempts. Let me know if you get notified.
