2001 Maniacs (2005)

A bunch of unlikeable Yankees on their way to Spring Break in Florida take a detour and find themselves in Pleasant Valley, a southern town who are “celebrating” an historic Civil War event. Mayor Freddie Kreuger (aka Robert Englund from Nightmare On Elm Street and Zombie Strippers) makes them guests of honour and they soon find themselves seduced and killed by various gruesome means. Never before have I seen men with such ugly teeth and women with such ugly breasts. This remake of Herschell Gordon Lewis’ 2000 Maniacs is not very good, but at least the killing starts quickly and some of the deliberately politically incorrect jokes are fun.
