Yeeee-Haw! The South's gonna rise again.
2000 Maniacs
A bunch on Yankees drive into a small Georgia town, just in time for the town's Centennial. Then they're killed off, one by one, in clever and creative methods.
Methinks the budget went for two things: red paint and Confederate flags.
This 1964 HG Lewis exploitation film uses pretty much every stereotype of depraved Southerners, in the most amusing manner possible. Cannibalism. Torture. BBQ.
Everything that makes a Saturday night perfect.

Cool bits- It was filmed in Kissimmini Florida, pre Disney. A lush, unspoiled small town... populated by the insane and damned!
