A possessed lawn mower has been attacking and dismembering the members of a prestigious country club on the club's golf course. Two golfers and a groundskeeper set out to destroy the mower.

Release[]

The film was commercially released in a few theaters (such as Times Square "grindhouse"), then broadcast on HBO, released on VHS and then packaged with two other Troma titles on DVD.[3]
