Philo Beddoe is your regular, easygoing, truck-driving guy. He's also the best bar-room brawler west of the Rockies. And he lives with a 165-pound orangutan named Clyde. Like other guys, Philo finally falls in love - with a flighty singer who leads him on a screwball chase across the American Southwest. Nothing's in the way except a motorcycle gang, some cops, and legendary brawler Tank Murdock.

During the launch party of a nude calendar, one of the models is thrown to her death by a black gloved killer. When the killer begins to strike again, going in the order of the calendar itself, a hard nosed cop realizes that he needs to solve the mystery, or risk all of the models ending up in the morgue!
