Naked Lunch Plot and Cast
Blank-faced bug killer Bill Lee and his dead-eyed wife, Joan, enjoy getting high on Bill's pest poisons while hanging out with their Beat poet pals. After encountering the devilish Dr. Benway, Bill obtains a drug made from a centipede. Upon taking it, he accidentally kills Joan, begins taking orders from his typewriter-turned-cockroach, and ends up in a constantly mutating Mediterranean city, where he learns his hip friends have published his work—which he doesn't remember writing.
