Modern day trailer park version of Bonnie and Clyde "Billy Bear" and "Betty Boop" are introduced to us within a diner ala Pulp Fiction discussing the passion with which the working class operate compared to big city employees who work with little dedication. We soon discover that these two have murdered everyone who had the misfortune of being in that diner with the police outside having the place surrounded. They with loot in tow(..they had previously robbed a bank and killed many innocents at the scene) exit the diner guns blazing ala Butch Cassady and The Sundance Kid. Billy(Christian Kane)informs us of his seven years behind bars being moved to another jail when his baby doll Betty(Rachel Miner)causes the transport truck to flip thanks to a diesel truck she had commandeered plowing into it. Billy having been rescued by Betty awakens inside a little hotel room and the two plan for their future. But Billy seemingly reformed having plenty of time to contemplate his murderous deeds and the blood on his hands tries to refrain from violent and sadistic activities and is constantly urged by Betty into steering back to the old ways. Meanwhile it seems someone is following them and Billy constantly reminds Betty that they must indeed pay for their past sins. We see that someone off-screen is torturing Billy s lovely and innocent sister Jenny(Polly Shannon) and a prison guard who snapped photos of her bound and gagged. Will this sadist catch up with Billy and Betty? Will Billy and Betty in fact face the consequences of their actions for all the blood they ve shed?

Poor Rachel Miner really wrestles with the accent and persona of a white trash southern princess trying her damnedest to make just a role work but I think it s just too much for her to handle. She wears little to nothing short mini-skirts and little shirts which are so open her bra always remains present throughout. Very leggy with long boots. Thick make-up and bright lip stick with hair that s stringy and messy as if she had left her beautician s chair before getting it finished. Kane has the muscles and attitude tattoos all over developing this tough-guy image. They re pretty much caricatures archetypes of restless souls with volatile personalities who desire to harm and wreak havoc. I thought they pretty much walked off the movie Domino(..directed by Tony Scott)into their own. The film to me makes a devastatingly wrong decision with the twist ending. It seems unnecessary but does fall in line with the overbearing message preached throughout the movie..we reap what we sow and karma s a bitch with the past eventually catching up with you for the deeds you have done. Lots of reflection from Billy who seems overwhelmed with guilt for his actions while interesting enough Betty focuses her thoughts on the money he hid(..the loot stole from the bank)in the vault within a graveyard. She s a wild spirit hard to control and manage. It s an ideal part for an actress capable enough to pull it off but Miner just doesn t fit the model of a white trash beauty no matter how hard she tries(..and she does try hard). It s simply far easier for me to accept her as the victim than a psychotic killer but I must at the very least commend her for giving it a shot. K.C. Bascombe really pulled a fast one on me because I truly felt this was set in the American Southwest..the rug pulled from under my feet finding that the actual shoot was in Argentina.
