Synopsis/Details
A cat-like alien, Churchill, is the misfit among misfits among his crazy, alien brothers hidden deep inside a cave. He does have one unique ability, though, that sets him apart from the rest. He has the ability to control others without harming them -- a talent his insane brethren have yet to accomplish.
Tasked with finding out why an old pirate town full of crazy descendants have suddenly disappeared (Serendipity) he recruits two old black men from a gin joint in the woods to go along. Henry and “No Account” Charles, though, are none too happy about it.
You see, what they don’t know is…Churchill has a secret. He’s crazy in love. Crazy in love with an 80 y.o. blind, black woman named Voodoo Trina who, along with what she likes to call her magic brew and a little bit of weed, can travel anywhere she wants without ever leaving her cabin. And this time, she travelled all the way down to Serendip’ to find out what’s going on.
Insisting they check on his momma first, Charles leads them to the old folk retirement home to find her. When they do, poor Charles finds out not only has his momma been turned into a monster, but so has the rest of the town and all by a high school science experiment gone wrong.
Realizing S.A.T.O. for what he is, an entity trying to turn every living being on the planet into a zombie he can feed off of, Churchill, No Account and Henry gather what’s left of a crazy band of survivors to stop him…and if that means using some black magic hoodoo then so be it.
With no choice but to stand together, crazy descendants and unpredictable aliens all fight to defeat S.A.T.O. not only in this world, but the next. Because, there’s one last secret to be had: a woman that lives in both worlds... and S.A.T.O. wants to use her to take over the universe.
