There’s a cardboard box full of bloody body parts stamped “Some Assembly Required,” a young boy in the shadows with a hacksaw, and a stereo that plays “Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head” relentlessly.

In a trailer in Texas, the Smith family hires a hit man to dispose of Mom and reap the life insurance rewards. When they can’t come up with the payment upfront, Joe beds the Smith daughter as a retainer. In a sinister twist the murder plot begins to unravel just as the theatrical plot turns deeper down the rabbit hole. Before it’s over, nearly everyone is bloodied.
