In the Baptist
backwoods of the Bible Belt, the beleaguered Turpin family proves that living
and dying in the South are seldom tidy and always hilarious. Despite
their earnest efforts to pull themselves together for their father's funeral,
the Turpins' other problems keep overshadowing the solemn occasion: Firstborn
Ray-Bud drinks himself silly as the funeral bills mount; Junior, the younger
son, is juggling financial ruin, a pack of no-neck monster kids, and a wife who
suspects him of infidelity in the family car; their spinster sister,
Delightful, copes with death as she does life, by devouring junk food; and all
the neighbors add more than two cents. as the situation becomes fraught
with mishap, Ray-Bud says to his long-suffering wife, "When I die, don't
tell nobody. Just bury me in the backyard and tell everybody I left
you." Amidst the chaos, the Turpins turn for comfort to their
friends and neighbors, an eccentric community of misfits who manage to pull
together and help each other through their hours of need, and finally, the
funeral. (not suggested for audiences under the age of 13; parents/guardians, please use your discretion)
