The film is set in downtown New York City in 1972. A young cocky kid, Benjamin Douglas, arrives via bus to start an adventurous career in the big apple. His first night ends abruptly as he witnesses a mob murder in an alley in lower Manhattan. The Don sics one of his henchmen to whack the boy. Benjamin, the boy, runs to the New York City Police Department to receive protection from the mob, but only gets rudely laughed at and told to "get the fuc* otta here!". After days of hiding out, facing death in the eyes, and continuously striving to see the next day; the boy decides to take matters in his on hands. He shaves his head, changes his appearance (rips the sleeves off of his jean jacket, covers his eyes with Emmanual Khahn Sunglasses, and shaves his beard...leaving only a mustache), and hires New York's finest hitmen. Claudsby Joel Lawrence and Hubert "Hue" Dodge, former war buddies from World War II, are now retired blue collar workers from New York's classic mill-plants. Benjamin remembered his grandfather telling him stories of the two war heroes back when he was a child in Chicago. He hired the two men to take out the henchman, and send the mob a "message". After killing the henchman, the three (Claudsby, Hue, and Benjamin) quickly realize they are in deep sh*t. The Capo Bastone, the boss of the Don, declares war on downtown New York City. It gets bloody. MPAA Rating: R. Violence, Language, and Sex Characters: Benjamin Douglas - A young cocky kid from Chicago who moves to New York City to live the big life. Sh*t happens and he is getting chased by the New York mob. Claudsby Joel Lawrence - A retired blue collar mill worker who served in World War II. He is an African American that can't stand bigotry and will gladly shoot your ass dead. Hubert "Hue" Dodge - He has worked his entire life alongside with Claudsby. They served together in the war and worked hand and hand in the New York mills. He's old as f*ckin Christmas and doesn't take BS from anyone. The Don - A fat New York millionaire that puts food on the table by taking heads off shoulders. Loves his work and hates to be ratted. Galore Johnston - A very sexy and seducing African American prostitute that Benjamin meets while running in the alleys from the mob. She takes his virginity and later takes his side during the battle of the Big Apple. The Capo Bastone - The boss of the Don. Hates when things are not done correctly. If he shows up, then you might as well go ahead and start saying your prayers. Henchman Roy - An Italian henchman that works for the Don. He is told to sic the boy and "make sure his ass is grass!" You hear me!". Officer Tony Klingmister - Your stereotypical New York cop. Covered in Donut powder and smells like Reuben, coffee, and cigarette sex. Not alot of brain, but alot of fun. Deputy Sal - Klingmister's deputy. Clearly hates his job.
