Joe, a down-on-his-luck truck driver haunted by the memory of his deceased wife and child, meets Julie, a spiritually gifted woman who enlists his help in a desperate effort to find the lost soul of her comatose daughter. But the spirit of Joe's dead wife proves stronger, possessing the young woman's body and determined to settle her unfinished business with the living.

A parody of an old-fashioned western set in contemporary Manhattan, with nods to "Gunsmoke," John Wayne, and Clint Eastwood. Among its humorous updatings of classic western stereotypes, its final showdown takes place on a desolate landfill, and the town prostitute, named Belle, is a black transvestite.
