Wacky film directed by Alex Cox who is a big Spaghetti Western fan. He takes the love of that genre and applies it to this film of his.
The film starts off with a bumbling group of criminals who mess up a hit in a hotel and then clumsily rob a bank in Mexico. They make their escape in a crappy car that barely works. They end up hiding out in a desolate desert town that is inhabited by some gunfighters with an addiction to coffee. There isn't much else coherent to the story except that every once in a while one of the baddies asks where the guys have hidden the money.
The cast is just as bizarre with appearances by Joe Strummer of The Clash, Grace Jones, Elvis Costello, Dennis Hopper, Courtney Love, and Jim Jarmusch among others.
Available: Netflix, Amazon
