2001 Maniacs

I counted maybe 87 maniacs, tops.

After seeing Robert Englund hamming it up while wearing a Confederate flag eyepatch I was expecting some fun stupid modern hicksploitation trash, but I'm not sure I expected the schlock to be this stupid. However, then I discovered this was a remake, so I went to check the source material for some context. So with "Two Thousand Maniacs"(1964) and the film being an Eli Roth production in mind, the over-the-top-stupidity makes sense, however the dumb trash still felt more grating than fun.

A decently schlocky update of the old Herschell Gordon Lewis gorefest, with tons of splatter and cheesy one liners. You could do a lot worse.

so many good cameos and a decent amount of great gore scenes...the acting not the best..some of the middle kinda dragged...

Up until the pointless twist ending, actually a pretty good trashfest. Chickens out on the gore a bit too much. Don't do splatter if you won't give us the splat.

Interesting side of horror.

Fun, corny, gory movie!

these sorts of movies explain where uwe boll gets his "magic" from. everything is far below average; the acting, the script, the only thing that's half decent is the gore. overall, this movie annoyed the shit outta me. dont get me wrong, i love horror, even low budget horror, but when its done in a right way ( see george a romero). this, like olaf ittenbach's chain reaction AKA house of blood, is a terrible movie and simply a waste of celluloid.

Yeeesh. See the original. That one at least had good music.

This is stupid. And ridiculous as it was - the "twist" in the end added up to an even more ludicrous finale...

Uncanny plot similarities to Hostel- tourists venture into a strange land and carouse with the locals, only to be brutally killed by said locals later on.That's what this felt like- a Hostel retread, with Civil War throwbacks instead of Eastern Europeans. Robert Englund went wild with his part, but there wasn't much else worth seeing in this one.

I didn't mind watching it, but I can't ignore that it is too over-the-top and cornball to be taken seriously as horror, and trying to hard to be a horror movie to be considered a comedy. I laughed some legitimately, I laughed more at the ridiculousness of it, and then chalked it up as a must see for my "Bad Horror Movie" nights.

Pointless.

good movie

the worst movie of all time ?

Had potential to be decent, but ends up lacking what made Cabin Fever and Hostel so great. Has a few good moments but isn't even really worth watching.

decent B movie remake
