I've always had a love of stories about inbred psychos for some reason (Think the movies Texas Chainsaw or Hills Have Eyes). I'm looking for some good books about demented rednecks or other imbreds. Any suggestions?

It's been awhile since i've read them but I think Jack Ketchum's Off Season and Off Spring are about inbred psycho's although it might have just been wild men and women living in the woods. Either way still pretty much the same effect and a good read.

Just thought of one actually. You might like Urban Gothic by Brian Keene

It's pretty good i thought. It was like reading a horror movie. He's also working on a sequel called Suburban Gothic

Keene does good work. And Deadite, who put out Urban Gothic is run by a good friend of mine. I can tell you Deadite's Keene stuff is well worth picking up. And for today's paperbacks, are dirt cheap. If you're looking for something like Keene but harder, Edward Lee's stuff might be a good bet.
