Well plot wise there's not much. A couple annoying city-folk wander into the wrong southern town. Why's it the wrong town? Because this town only appears every 100 years & the inhabitants are dying to eat them, um I mean meet them. Pretty high gore quotient, some real nice southern sweeties & Robert Englund, well doing what he does!
This movie is just a a whole lotta fun. The film is not very well written or performed. But it's really well executed. Has tons of great death scenes, really hot guys and a really clever and unique take on the genre. The film has some disturbing moments but over all it's just a really great time. everyone is having tons of fun making it and Tim Sullivan is one of the most promising new director sin the genre. he knows his audience and he knows how to have a great time with it. Enjoy!
Im not going to lie to you this movie is a terrible movie the script is terrible. This movie has got a ton of gore. Allot of nudity and creative deaths. It goes through every negative steriotype of the confederate south. Originally I hated this movie but after I watched it I couldnt stop thinking about it now I am in love with this movie. With Robert Englund as the star of this movie who could loose. This movie stuffed the envolope in shock cinema as far as Im concerned. It is so refreshing to see a horror movie were no one makes it out alive. This movie had some wonderfull deaths in it I could not beleave the amount sleaze this movie had a under the radar classic to say the least.
This one was surprisingly excellent! Good gore, good action, good comedy, and good 'ol nudity!! Go rent this one, its a great entertainment!!

I thought that 2001 maniacs was an extremely enjoyable experience.
Storyline: 8 people take a detour and end up in pleasant valley, a town where everyone is a hill billy and people party all through the night. But soon the fun ends when the towns folk get hungry and start to murder and eat the group. Now the group have to escape the village before they all die. 10/10
Acting: Cheesy and awesome at the same time. 10/10
Special Effects: Top notch gory b-grade violence........SWEET! 10/10
Best Scene: The ending 10/10
Ending: The ending is awesome, I love movies where no one survives. 10/10
Overall 2001 maniacs was a delightful little upexpected treat for me. I LOVED IT. I give 2001 maniacs 9/10
I enjoyed this movie. Yes it is a B-rated movie there is no doubt about it. But it is extremely amusing. You will either love it or hate it. The acting is not bad although some of the actors clearly got their parts because that had to have known someone or they called in a favor, which is not surprising, since the writers hit on every cliché in the book so to speak.... redneck zombies, a lot of blood & sex, girl on girl action, guy on guy action etc ...
Lots of blood and guts and interesting ways to off the characters, which I have to give the director credit for. At the very least if you have Netflix I would say it’s worth renting. Personally, I own the movie as I enjoyed it and found it fun to watch.

great film. cheesey effects, cheesey acting, and robert englund. whats not to like? gets pretty gory, too, which is always good. robert englund gives one of his most outrageous preformances as the confederate flag eyepatched leader of the town of redneck cannibals. i was impressed by the unique kills as well. fun.

Great moVie
i got to see this last night on fear-net
and i was blown away...
lots of blood and gore...
loads of tig-o-bitties....
and....Robert Englund!!
I caught this on Showtime one evening and couldn't turn it off. I knew it was ridiculous and low budget but was content with the idea of a movie that wasn't trying to lie about it. The gore is fun (pig roast: boys beware) and Robert Englund has added another character to his long list of horror movie creeps.
This is a fun film to watch and one i loved, ok a group of teenagers get lost in the woods blah blah blah, but hey i laughed grimaced and enjoyed myself watching it. the acting is solid the FX and bloody gore count is pretty good and storyline had me wanting to see it to the end so all in all to me a thumbs up.

Let's see. A group of teenagers get lost in the wrong part of town and end up in the hands of deranged, merciless killers. Hmmm... This has potential if you like to watch Kathy Bates wash her feet.
I had the pleasure of sitting through this film only to forget that it was playing in order to discuss the ramifications of a world without butter. No, seriously. Robert Englund has not been relevant for a while now, and he is utterly terrible in this film, kind of a Freddy Krueger meets Colonel Sanders.

While there are some good performances, perhaps the best by Lin Shaye and genre favorite Robert Englund, there's not much else to be found here. The young actors, while good-looking (especially the ladies!) can't act their way out of a paper bag, and the rest of the aspects (gore effects, cinematography) are just awful. However, there was a certain quality about this that wouldn't let me hate it, and for that I'll give it 2 and a half skulls.

I love this movie. It was a movie I just looked at the case and rented and I'm happy I took the chance on it.
Hated every second of this insult to the horror genre. "Camp" does not belong in horror, save it for the drag shows.

This movie was another fun one. It had plenty of B rated horror, humor, and gore to keep most fans interested. Much like the original, but this movie for a modern day flick was good. I would recommend this to people who enjoy gore and nonesense in their horror movies and even if you didn't this movie would be hard to dissappoint.

A hilarious, fun and faithful to the original's gory violence, '2001 Maniacs' is one of the funnest gore films seen in some time.

daft and enjoyable. corny lines after deaths; gore; a fun story & boobs. a good non-scary but violent horror.
u guys are missing the point of the movie there was no way that this movie was ment to b serious it was supposed to look retarded. the fact that you are taking it serious makes it even funnier. dont get me wrong im not putting you guys down i just think your missing the point of the movie. yes the movie as far as diolouge is stupid but over all its a very nice movie.
