Plot
John Smith is down on his luck. His girlfriend left him for a doctor. A hooker steals his wallet at an Apache Reservation casino. He loses an Elvis Impersonation contest and later loses at poker with the four other impersonators: Gay Elvis, Little Person Elvis, Asian Elvis, and contest winner Elvis Elvis.
John is later apprehended by casino security, who think he stole a priceless ancient Apache mask from "The Chief", owner of the casino, with witnesses having seen an Elvis impersonator. The guards deduce that John didn't take it, so The Chief offers him $1,000,000 to find it.
A hitwoman, "The Blonde", who quotes Edgar Allan Poe before killing her victims, confronts Gay Elvis. She kills him, but does not find the mask.
John learns Elvis Elvis's address, and when he gets there, he meets Elvis's neighbor, Cindy. The mask isn't there, but they are attacked by another hitman, "The Cowboy", and his sidekick Mo. As they escape, John suggests calling the sheriff, but Cindy explains that the two sheriffs are corrupt, one working for The Chief and the other for "The Rancher". They encounter The Rancher, who explains that he hired the Elvises to steal the mask, which he used to own. A flashback reveals that, 30 years earlier, a man who worked for The Rancher had the mask, but he and his family were killed by Apaches. The Rancher offers John a $1,000,000 reward.
John and Cindy visit Asian Elvis, who demands they give him the mask. Another hitman, "The Indian", tomahawks Asian Elvis dead. They escape and head back to Elvis Elvis's, only to be confronted by Little Person Elvis, who demands the mask. Before he can shoot them, The Blonde appears and kills Little Person Elvis. John and Cindy escape, but The Sheriffs apprehend him for the three Elvis murders. They take John and Cindy with them to the desert, John having deduced that Elvis Elvis may be waiting there for a bus.
Elvis Elvis is the only passenger on the bus, the driver having stepped off, when The Blonde boards and shoots him. As he is dying he whispers something to her and she smiles broadly, taking his satchel with the mask. The Blonde finds the bus driver and kills him after he confirms he notified both The Rancher and The Chief.
John, Cindy, and The Sheriffs arrive later. The Blonde has left a message to bring the money and John to Station 12Шаблон:Sndthe isolated desert way station where the Apaches had killed the family. As they're leaving, The Cowboy and Mo show up. The Cowboy kills The Sheriffs, but The Indian appears and tomahawks The Cowboy and Mo. The Chief arrives, and the group head to Station 12 with his $1,000,000 briefcase
They arrive just as The Rancher does, with his $1,000,000 briefcase. Cindy reveals that she is The Rancher's daughter and was following John in case he found the mask. When The Blonde emerges from the station, The Indian attacks, but she kills him. She tells the rest to send John in with the briefcases, or everyone will die.
When John enters the station, he and The Blonde embrace. The family that was killed in the flashback was John's. They had a Hopi housekeeper who hid John in the floorboards of the station and told the Apaches that he was dead. The Blonde is John's ex-girlfriend, who stuck around to help John get revenge for his family.
John and The Blonde tell The Rancher and The Chief why they are doing this. Also, she tells them that Elvis Elvis's dying words were that he destroyed the mask when he realized he wouldn't be able to sell it. She tells them she will return and kill anyone who retaliates. She leaves, with a briefcase and the hooker who stole John's walletШаблон:Sndshe is actually the doctor that The Blonde left him for.
John leaves with his briefcase and the mask, which wasn't really destroyed. John returns it to his Hopi protector from 30 years earlier, finishing the job his father had startedШаблон:Sndreturning the mask to her tribe, the rightful owners.
