Dead Dog Blues

Synopsis

The story of a woman's fight to retain her dignity. When she's tried all she can by gentle means, and things are only getting worse, she starts to fight back with a vengeance.

A macabre story of a victimised woman who kills the men that torment her and buries them one by one, on top of each other, in a shallow grave.

To her surprise however, the dead do not rest easy. The abusive husband she kills returns to torment her as a very real ghost. At the same time, she is being investigated for another murder by a sadistic detective, who is not what he appears to be.
