Plot

In the riotously irreverent film, Petey Wheatstraw (Rudy Ray Moore), a charismatic martial artist and humorist, is caught up in a devilish proposition. Born from the seeds of an unconventional birth, with a watermelon serving as a peculiar precursor to his arrival, Petey's life is anything but ordinary. His comedic prowess is unmatched, save for the nefarious duo, Leroy and Skillet, who are not only his rivals in humor but also engage in the macabre business of murder. Their heinous actions catch the attention of none other than the devil himself, who resurrects their victims from the icy grip of death. However, this act of dark benevolence is not without a price. The devil sets his sights on Petey, offering him a deal he can't refuse - to wed his grotesquely unattractive daughter and bless him with a grandchild. When Petey dares to back out of the unholy agreement, he becomes the target of the devil's relentless minions. Navigating this infernal predicament, Petey must juggle his comedic career, his martial arts skills, and a deal with the devil in a laugh-out-loud journey of supernatural proportions.
