"Wahnwitzige Horrorkomödie über eine mysteriöse Reihe von Autounfällen in einer australischen Kleinstadt. Wie es bei Kleinstädten nun mal üblich ist, sind die Einwohner immer etwas merkwürdig und ganz besonders in Paris. Rätselhafte Autounfälle sind an der Tagesordnung und auch Arthur Waldo hat einen Unfall. Als er sich wieder wohl fühlt, beobachtet er merkwürdige Vorgänge und vor allem in der Forschungsabteilung des Krankenhauses, weil die Unfallopfer angeblich verrückt geworden sind. Arthur entschliesst sich, in der Stadt zu bleiben und erhält von dem Bürgermeister den Job eines Parkwächters, der aufpassen muß, daß die Leute richtig parken, wer falsch parkt, dessen Auto wird abgebrannt. Auf einem Ball kommt es dann zum Showdown, die Jugend flippt aus und fährt die Stadt kaputt, es kommt zu einer Schlacht zwischen Jugendlichen und Älteren."

"A small town in rural Australia (Paris) makes its living by causing car accidents and salvaging any valuables from the wrecks. Into this town come brothers Arthur and George. George is killed when the Parisians cause their car to crash, but Arthur survives and is brought into the community as an orderly at the hospital. But Paris is not problem free.
