Synopsis

Toni Lawrence plays Lynn Webster, an escapee from a mental hospital who takes refuge in a local diner inhabited by a man named Zambrini and his pigpen of human flesh-eating pigs. When Lynn starts killing men who remind her of her abusive father (whom she killed after he raped her), Zambrini feeds the remains to his sadistic swine. However, law enforcement starts to catch up with the two of them.
