The town psychiatrist has decided to switch everybody in
Pine Cove, California, from their normal antidepressants to
placebos, so naturally -- well, to be accurate,
artificially -- business is booming at the local blues bar.
Trouble is, those lonely slide-guitar notes have also
attracted a colossal sea beast named Steve with, shall we
say, a thing for explosive oil tanker trucks. Suddenly,
morose Pine Cove turns libidinous and is hit by a
mysterious crime wave, and a beleaguered constable has to
fight off his own gonzo appetites to find out whats wrong
and what, if anything, to do about it.
