Hopper plays Frankie, a pimp working for the Hollywood Mafia in the late 1980s. Fed up with his violent and abusive boss Sal, Frankie decides to make his own porno movie with his love interest Margaret: a prostitute seeking to escape her heroin addiction and become an actress, and his friend Joe: a washed-up film director who owes a gambling debt to the mob. When Sal finds out he abducts and tortures Margaret and Joey, then films it to taunt Frankie. Instead of heeding Sal's warning and fleeing town, Frankie plots his revenge on his former boss[2]
