Plot
After a successful bank heist Candy and Johnny go on the run, abandoning the rest of their crew. Johnny is soon arrested and Candy is forced to hide out in a convent. An alien infested meteor lands in Candy's soup which infects her and her pet poodles. The infection causes dramatic changes in everyone who has consumed it, causing her poodles to transform into drag queens.[1] Soon Candy also starts changing, her hair and skin change colour, spikes protrude from her spine, and her tongue extends and soon becomes murderous. This causes Candy to kill multiple people in various ways using her now bloodthirsty tongue.[2]
