I Quatro Brutos, consisting of Artie, Lee, Johnny and Pep have inherited a funeral home in Fresno. They arrive in town during a fierce gun battle. Thinking that it's a celebration honoring their arrival, they also begin shooting their guns into the air. But, as luck would have it, the 4 inadvertently kill all the bad guys. Their first customer wants them transport a coffin carrying a relative to remote location. In reality it is a fake and the coffin contains a treasure. During the trip the four are attacked and captured by the Indians, the chief of the tribe intends to give them as husbands his four ugly daughters. After many adventures, the Brutos foil the plan of to smuggle the treasure and return to town laden with glory, but they cannot escape their fate with the four Indian and end up marrying the maidens.
