Horror • R • Directed by: Tim Sullivan • 88 minutes

A remake of Herschell Gordon Lewis's 1960s gory classic, "Two Thousand Maniacs!," "2001 Maniacs" follows a group of Northern college kids lured into the Southern town of Pleasant Valley to take part in the "Guts and Glory Jubilee," a celebration of the glory days of Dixie. Soon enough, they realize that the "guts" might turn out to be their own, as the crazed Southerners, led by Mayor Buckman (Robert Englund), have planned festivities that involve killing and consuming the Yankee kids.
