Synopsis
Two lovers, Nikki and Al, have a scam in which Nikki allows herself to be picked up by older men, drugs them, and, with Al's help, robs them. After accidentally killing one of her victims with an overdose, Nikki and Al are on the run. When the owner of one of the motels in which they crash is found with his throat cut and a family who offered them hospitality is also found slashed to death, Nikki and Al begin to suspect each other.
