An interview film, sort of, with several comics telling the same joke, about an agent trying to sell a very bad number about a family who does a series of nasty acts amongst themselves. The punchline consists in the name of the skit.
The joke in itself is fascinating for its self-referentiality (it's a joke about not being funny which isn't very funny itself). The film, while at one point correctly explaining the joke, dwells mostly in the "dare" aspect of it, in a sort of competition to see who comes up with the most horrendous set-up; there aren't many possible combinations, so dullness is inevitable.
