[convergence-continuum]

"enough realistic absurdity to elicit belly laughs"
(Tony Brown, Plain Dealer)

APORKALYPSE! is set in the mountain country of North Carolina where Pork
Corp  has bought out nearly all the farms in the area and set up factory
farming of hogs.  The last hold-out is Pappaw and Mammaw’s family pig farm
where they, and their PTSD-afflicted, Gulf War vet son Karol, are under
siege, surrounded by the stench of Pork Corp’s operations. Into this mess
comes son JP, AWOL from duty in Iraq, just in time for Christmas. The
stress of cabin fever reigns and leads to some wild shenanigans when the
family is visited by Karol’s sexy social worker, devious Pork Corp
executives, and accordion-toting carolers (not to mention, an apparition
of a Persian love goddess).
