In 1958, in West Texas, Sheriff Joe Terrell was trying to find out who killed an old Mexican named Jesus Morales. Joe's investigation leads him to a top secret branch of the U.S. Air Force. A bumbling group of misfits charged with keeping U.F.O. activity under wraps. When the Sheriff runs afoul of these gun nuts all hell breaks loose. What follows is a deadly and oddly comic version of Doctor Strangelove meets Mayberry R.F.D..
