Rural Gangsters
 Prime Cut / int_1779327d
comment
Rural Gangsters: Mary Ann is a Slaughterhouse owner and mob boss in Kansas City, who lives on a cattle farm, has minions who dress in bib overalls and turns people who upset him into sausages. He likewise runs a particularly brutal Human Trafficking scheme where he gets vulnerable orphaned girls addicted to drugs and then sells them as Sex Slaves in a manner deliberately designed to resemble livestock sales (with him even mockingly renaming the girls after prize-winning cows just to twist the knife further). He's contrasted against Nick Devlin, a gangster from the Irish Mob in Chicago (who likewise has a much more professional, refined and urban aesthetic) who comes to collect an outstanding debt from him, after Mary killed the previous two guys who came for the money.
