YEEEEEEEEEE-HAWWWWWWWWWWW! It's a good ol' get down this week with, not a slasher flick, but something that predates that: a splatter flick! "Two Thousand Maniacs!" also featured the pure unadulterated insanity known affectionately as "redneck horror" that we kinda couldn't get enough of.

YEEEEEEEEEE-HAWWWWWWWWWWW! It’s a good ol’ get down this week with, not a slasher flick, but something that predates that: a splatter flick! “Two Thousand Maniacs!” also featured the pure unadulterated insanity of so-called “redneck horror” that we strangely kinda couldn’t get enough of. On top of all that, there’s an extra special twist that we did not see coming but loved nonetheless, leading us (Ryan and Tim) to both give it a rip-roarin’ “rent.”
