John Nobunny (as portrayed by Nobunny, as portrayed by Justin Champlin) is a former member of a Special Forces unit that served in the Vietnam War. After learning that the only other living member of his unit has passed away, he enters the town of Hope, British Columbia. There, the overzealous sheriff (played by the scene-stealing Goner Records founder Eric Friedl) urges Nobunny to leave town, stating that he “hates drifters, especially ones wearing creepy bunny masks and lacking pants.” With that, Nobunny does the only things he knows how to do: he writes a record called First Blood (TMT Review) and tours every other city or, at least, all of the ones located on the Western half of North America.
On his next tour, Nobunny just kills everybody. He shoots every single person with a machine gun. And things blow up. Like, a lot of things blow up.
