THE SEA MONKS

King Macey, two other young punks, and his girl, Rosie, commit a heist and a murder and can only make a getaway to a lighthouse, where they are stranded and where King goes amok. Life on the rock, a ""perishin' dump"", leads to further dissension and murder and only a towering storm succeeds in subduing and breaking a conscienceless boy with a gun. The lighthouse is the beacon of interest here in a story which is not much above dead, sea or any other level.
