Paul Bland (Paul Bartel) and his wife Mary Bland (Mary Woronov) are a couple that lives up to their name. They lead a quiet and conservative life in Los Angeles, and are disgusted and frustrated by their neighborhood full of swinging bachelors. They fear that their dreams of running a small restaurant may be in jeopardy, so they devise a plan to off their less than desirable neighbors. Their plan is quite simple - hit them over the head with a frying pan, dispose of the bodies, and keep the wallets. Everything seems to be working well for the Blands until a burgler named Raoul (Robert Beltran) catches onto their plan and decides that he needs to be cut in on the action. Will their plan be successful?
