Summary

Tired of having nowhere to go for fun, Kate, her brother Ricky, and friends Bobbi, Danny and Val lease a dilapidated nightclub called The Zoo from an old drunk named Leatherface. The Zoo becomes their home away from home and an overnight success until the Donnelly Clan catches wind of it.

Little Joe and his brawny, but dimwitted twin brothers are a walking, talking trio of nuisance; where they go, trouble is sure to follow. And when they enter The Zoo ripe for a fight, a fight is just what they get. They have pushed The Zoo Gang too far and the battle for the club is on. Will the Gang be able to save their new found club from the greedy hands of the Donnelly clan? [1]
