Synopsis
Duke Johnson arrives in Bucktown to bury his brother. Upon learning he must stay for 60 days due to estate processing, a few locals persuade him to reopen his late brother's nightclub. The local redneck cops begin harassing Duke, demanding bribes which he refuses to pay. This leads to threats and attacks against Duke and his girlfriend Aretha by the corrupt officers. Instead of confronting them himself, Duke calls on his old friend Roy for help. Roy arrives with some buddies and they bring justice to Bucktown. However, once the cops are dealt with, Duke lets his guard down too soon as the situation escalates again. Ultimately, Duke must personally settle the score.
