Inbred Rednecks (1998) Reviews

• One of the most important films of our time

  Oh, dear, sweet Lord, 2 hours and 15 minutes!! And thank you Mr. Joshua P. Warren, for that. Not a 2 hour and 15 minute Hixploitation flick mind you, but a modern-day, Z-grade Hixploitation epic, about cock-fighting, packed with brain-damaged juvenile humor, which includes silence for a soundtrack, that lasts 2 hours and 15 minutes!! Inbred Rednecks is one of those rare stories that speaks to you on a deep personal level, that really makes you think. Set in North Carolina, about some good ol' boys (white trash), with some bigass dreams, dreams of strikin' in rich in the cock-fighting circuit. Billy Bob, Joe Bob, Bubba, and Clovis have an advantage, an advantage conveniently called bigass Rooster, a massive Rooster who will plow through the competition no problem, makin' these good ol' boys a killin', that is, if it don't get stole. When this white trash quartet isn't dreamin' about success within the cock-fighting industry, they're usually trying (in vain) to pick up any kind of female they can find, or being homophobic, or telling dirty jokes, or hey, there's always the county fair. Yeah, pretty much a whole lot of nothing. This movie, come to find out, is a whole lot of nothing, then again, I've never seen nothing be so funny. Although, Inbred Rednecks manages to give the finger to just about every form of film-making, Hollywood or otherwise, this tasteless piece of garbage, to me, is everything that is true and pure about independent film making. It's about entertaining the audience, not impressing it. Relying 100% on outrageous dialog, and obscene toilet humor. Inbred Rednecks is a refreshing addition to the Exploitation universe, and will entertain you whether you like it or not, and hell, it wasn't even shot on video! For more in the Hixploitation sub-genre, check out Scum Of The Earth and Moonshine Mountain. Regardless of what you think of B-cinema, regardless what you think of Hixploitation, I passionately recommend this film to the entire world's population. This film needed to be made. Yay for Inbred Rednecks. 10/10

• appeals to some sort of niche market, maybe

  Well, I can't say this is the best movie I've ever seen--because it isn't! This film was lensed by Joshua Warren, a local guy from Asheville N.C., near where I live. Josh has an impressive career as an author and paranormal researcher--somewhere in between writing books on local haunted places and chasing ghosts he made this red herring, something about some none-too-bright rednecks who raise a mutant rooster for cock fighting! Josh and some friends play the rubes in question, who drift through a series of toilet-joke set-ups and raunchy gags on their way to the big no-holds-barred cock fight! At once mortifying in it's utter tastelessness and impressive for even getting made in the first place. There's something to be said for a movie like this--if this could be unleashed on the world, imagine what you could do!I've heard tell that this flick won some sort of award for being the best film to watch while stoned--undoubtably!

  Well, this movie is a bit long-winded, however, there are a few parts that are really outrageous..I couldn't stop laughing at the scene when the guy was sitting on the sofa with the dog, Rufus....and his stomach was bubbling...That was funny my friend...it was all in the set-up...I hurt myself laughing...!!!! As far as it being something to write home about...no, but still it's just entertainment...it'll give you a laugh or so...! I understand this genre is not for everyone, but you gotta give the guys credit.it's shot on a low-budget, to say the least, but hell, it is what it is, right? Not trying to win an Oscar or anything...it's just plain old redneck humor....plain country folk...cock-fighting and some of everything else....!

• This movie's hilarious

  Horrible script, horrible direction, horrible lighting, horrible jokes, horrible sound, horrible acting. So, why do I love it so much? It has a nice, homey feel to it. You can tell everybody who made this film is friends. There are some truly hilarious scenes, like the horrifying fate of "Sweet Meat" the midget. I'd like to see this guy make another film, for sure. I rented this movie numerous times in college and my roommates all loved it. It has a retarded appeal. I'd love to see a DVD of this released. I'd buy it, hellll yes I would. Anyway, my review is over, pretty much. IMDb has this ten line minimum so I have to keep writing. Inbred Rednecks is a funny, funny movie. Go see it, if you like gross, crude, poorly done movies. I like this movie. Am I at ten lines yet? YES! I am. Bye now.

  This movie was like watching an updated version of the Three Stooges visiting the backwoods. It seemed like a funny Saturday Night Live show that was taped on Tuesday afternoon. I can see this as a weekly series on the FOX network!
