Scorned and detested by everyone since the beginning of time, Death is surprised to be befriended by an illness-stricken President Marshall. The U.S. President’s intentions are less than sincere however, his sights set on immortality and eternal incumbent status. Blinded by the need for friendship, Death unknowingly falls into the corrupt politician’s trap, and soon finds his power to collect souls compromised. As the dire and twisted consequences of a life without death begin to merge, it’s up to a cadre of political officials, and an Australian garbage man named Big Tony to help Death realize his importance and save existence.
