Synopsis
In Dead Man's Paradise, the story opens with a sense of foreboding as Dr. Weird introduces the tale set in the desolate swamplands near the Mississippi River. Here, young Paul Morrell is forced to leave his ailing father in their Cajun shack to check their traps. Little does he know that two bank robbers, Ace and Duke, are lurking nearby, desperate and dangerous. They have just committed murder, and now they need Paul to guide them through the treacherous swamps towards New Orleans, where they hope to escape the law.
