He saved her life, and they killed him for it.
Four men, led by Postman Otis P. Hazelrigg (Charles Durning), seek out Bubba (Larry Drake) after they believe he killed a young girl. Quick for vengeance but slow to ask questions, they quickly find and kill Bubba, only to hear shortly after that it was all a misunderstanding. The girl is alive, and Bubba was her savior. The four men are cleared by the law, but there is other justice in this world besides the law. One by one, the men find themselves dying, with the only hint at the perpetrator being the mysterious scarecrow which once held Bubba's corpse. Is someone using it to taunt them? Or is Bubba not quite as dead as they thought?
