Summary
In a slapstick spoof of hitmen and crime stories, the head of a security systems company is bumped off by two exterminators who have gone from stomping out pesky varmints to stomping out human targets. The exterminators go after the partner who hired them and his blatantly obnoxious wife and, in the meantime, frame a poor security guard for the murder of the company boss
