Better than i expected
This film starts with several school/college kids going on a road trip and they end up arriving in a throwback civil war town and they are the guests of honour with free food and drink to boot. however soon the killings start with plenty of tounge in cheek death scenes and stereotyping country folk .
The gore and effects are above average with plenty of jokes hidden in the works. Robert England is a hit as the mayor and the film has a suprize ending for you
Remember (Country voice) Shes just playing hard to get!!!!!!! -

Your standard teen horror movie
An enjoyable enough horror movie for the most part, but it seemed to be missing something and felt pretty pointless and hollow in the end. The film has blood, nudity, lesbians, incest, bestiality, cannibalism, racism, and homophobia (so it is never really boring), the death-scenes are fun to watch, and the gore effects are effective (even if they are cheap looking), but it is pretty clichéd and really unimpressive in the end, with no interesting or developed characters, and therefore no-one of the viewer to really root for. The film has a good mix of experienced actors (Robert Englund, Peter Stormare(from Prison Break), Lyn Shyne) and young actors, and Robert Englund & Lyn Shyne put in solid performances, but everyone seems to be under-used (especially Peter Stormare). 2001 Maniacs is an interesting film which shows potential, but said potential is never really met.
