To a remote desert wasteland with a million dollars in heroin come David and Tis, to make a Savage Connection for the drug syndicate. Hiding enormous amounts of syndicate money from drug collections in phony expenses for movies which are never released, David encounters the movie's producer, Jan, who has sworn to kill David and regain the tender love he once shared with Tis before the cancerous power of David and his heroin displaced her need for him. Bernie, jaded overlord of the drug syndicate, discharges an ambitious underling, Clay, and his motorcycle stormtroopers to insure the heroin drop. In the midst of this brewing violence, Cynthia Corde and her husband, Alec, a small time cowboy actor, play out their rolls in the bizarre phony movies. Flaunting her voluptuous body at any man she encounters, Cynthia promises passions which her frigid body cannot deliver. Passion, tension and violence erupt when a storm trooper is destroyed by an accidental rifle discharge. Daphne is made to pay the cruel penalty of sodomy at the hand of the storm-op leader, Clay. She is spared from further mob indignities by the bold stand of cowboy actor Alec. Together they dig a grave for the slain trooper, and passions flare. The grave becomes their couch of love in a bizarre sensuous orgy. As Cynthia Cordes frigidity is tested in her dressing trailer by a menage-a-trois between a storm trooper and a good-time girl whose "bag is women-," Tis and Jan are secretly meeting to consummate the white heat of their burning passions in an adagio ballet of tenderness and sensuous lovemaking. The FLASH POINT of the violence erupts during a wild orgy of the storm troops and their ladies when David discovers Jan and Tis ', "making it." The film moves quickly now in one explosive surprise after another, as the greed, ambitions and sexual needs of each person makes its own Savage Connection.
