2 bizarre minor gay characters...Cuba in murderous drag...
And...Dorff’s impressive semi-hard willy.
These are all factors that will definitely keep interest acute.
Beautifully filmed. Mad imagination.
Is this breaking boundaries?
It certainly is...successfully.

The(ir) Blurb...
Mikey and Rose are professional assassins. They are also lovers, and once upon a time Rose also knew Mikey's father. During an elaborate hit job for a malicious gangster, Rose fails to kill the main target, the gangster's pregnant girlfriend.
