Perhaps THE coolest hillbilly film? I picked up a copy of this recently and fuckin' loved it. Totally nasty minded, violent and trashy (exactly how I love my films to be). It's defintley a step back into non-P.C past of the horror film (I'd be suprised if they'd let anyone make something like this these days).
While on a trip some girls are abducted by Ike, Addley and their deranged Ma. Ma gets her boys to train themselves physically and mentally in the art of murder and abduction to protect her from her crazy sister who's apparently prowling round the woods waiting for her chance to get her. The abducted girls become part of Ma's boys training resulting in some truely sadistic torture, rape and murder..... but in a blackly funny way. Turns into a pretty decent revenge flick (ala I Spit On Your Grave) after the girls escape and Ma and her boys get despatched in grizzly ways. Directed by Charles Kaufman it was the film to kick off the Troma empire (5 years later they made The Toxic Avenger - and the rest is history). Jam packed with black humour and gore this is easily growing on me and becoming on of my favorites of the genre. Avoid if your easily offended or else check it out and enjoy the depravity.....
...Yeah, that was agreat movie...I havn't seen that in sooo long, I'm gonna have to DL that...:D
