Movie Review by Movie Addict
April 2nd, 2009

Favorite Movie Quote: "You'll get what you deserve in them Deep Barons, you lez-beans! You won't be causin' no one no trouble no more!"

I kept looking at the back seat of the car when the two scumbags prepared to off the old lady. Why is that plastic there? We soon found out that all little old ladies are not to be messed with.

The initial excitement wore off as the film meandered around until three girls (Tiana Pierce, Deborah Luce, and Nancy Hendrickson) all headed to the woods for their annual get together. After a while, the action starts as Mother's (Beatrice Pons) two backwoods boys, Addley (Michael McCleery) and Ike (Frederick Coffin) capture the girls and use them as props for Mother's enjoyment. Of course, their little plays feature rape and torture. Only the first girl dies, and the other two manage to escape to get revenge.

Unfortunately the camera was not a friend as most of the money shots were taken from a distance. Hopefully this will be corrected in the planned remake.

The last 10 minutes made it all worthwhile.
