Tom Welles on tavallinen perheenisä ja yksityisetsivä. Tom elättää perhettään selvittelemällä hienotunteisesti ökyrikkaille tyypillisiä kulissientakaisia keskiverto-ongelmia, aviorikoksia yms. Tasaiseen keskivertoarkeen tulee kuitenkin vaihtelua, kun vastahaudatun teollisuuspohatan leski tarvitsee Tomin palveluksia. Ryhdikkäänä tunnetun vainajan kassakaapista on löytynyt 8 mm:n filmille kuvattu snuff-elokuva, eli tässä tapauksessa nuoren tytön raiskaus ja murha. Leski haluaa tietää onko filmi huijausta vai onko filmillä näkyvä nuori tyttö todella murhattu. Filmin alkuperän metsästys vie Tomin Floridaan. Siellä hän ottaa apurikseen pornofilmejä myyvän kirjakaupan harjoittelijan Maxin. He sukeltavat syvälle pornoteollisuuden pohjamutiin etsien snuff-elokuvia ja pääsevät uusille vereksille jäljille. Welles saa kuitenkin huomata olevansa itsekkin synkällä matkalla ihmismielen salattuihin ja pimeimpiin syövereihin, kun pornobisneksen perverssiot ottavat otteen hänestä itsestään.
