The story

What Is Killer Tongue About?

The premise of Killer Tongue without spoilers.

A desperate bank robber takes shelter in a remote desert gas station operated by nuns while she waits for her boyfriend’s release. When an alien meteorite strikes, she mutates into a flesh‑craving monster with an enormous tongue, and her poodles inexplicably become flamboyant drag queens, driving the film’s wild, off‑kilter horror‑comedy tone.
