The story
Three Russian-American friends in Clairton, Pennsylvania—Mike, Steven, and Nick—work in a steel mill and hunt deer with co-workers Stan and Axel, and bartender friend John.
After catching the bouquet at Steven and Angela's wedding at a veterans hall, Linda accepts Nick's spontaneous marriage proposal.
Firing his round into the ceiling, Steven is forced into a submerged cage in the river with rats and previous victims.
