Basin City, almost universally referred to by the nickname Sin City, is a fictional town in the American west.

In 1995, Jackie Brown, a flight attendant for a fictional Mexican airline named Cabo Air, makes ends meet by smuggling money from Mexico into the United States for Ordell Robbie, a gun runner living in Los Angeles.

It’s Ted the Bellhop’s first night on the job…and the hotel’s very unusual guests are about to place him in some outrageous predicaments. It seems that this evening’s room service is serving up one unbelievable happening after another.
Unlike the first two Creepshow installments, in which the wraparound element linking the stories was a horror comic, Creepshow 3 takes an approach similar to Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction, in which characters from each story interact with each other during the film. Brochures, ads and other things from the hot dog stand are peppered throughout.
