Gory but kitsch thriller set in the deep south about a gang of college kids on spring break who spend the night in the inappropriately named town of Pleasant Valley - a decision they will regret. Persuaded by the overzealous mayor to join them for the town's annual BBQ, the prospect seems hard to resist until they begin to disappear one-by-one in the most gruesome of fashions.

3.5/5
It's all gleefully over-the-top - from the comedy to the gore - and rife with playful Southern traditions. Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews 10/28/2006
1.5/4
...riddled with precisely the sort of unconvincing and subpar acting that one generally associates with low-budget horror flicks. Go to Full Review Andy Klein Los Angeles CityBeat 08/10/2006
...on a level playing field, Sullivan's remake is a better film [than the original] in every regard...Not for grandma, but loads of crude fun otherwise. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

thiago s @Thiagostone Jan 24 Filne ruim, o roteiro é ruim, as cenas de terror são ruins, junto com as cenas de sensualidade, e ofinal é horrível os dois amigos tentam escapar mas morrem por causa de um arrame no meio da estrada. Eu não recomendo esse filme ruim do caralho, vai se fude. See more Jason W 07/21/2024 Think campy sexual innuendo comedy similar to Road Trip/Eurotrip meets crazy cannibalistic southerners. Robert Englund was good but Lin Shaye was the standout for me. Decent special fx and interesting kills. Just to note, lots of sexual content as well as animal deaths, so just a warning if you wish to avoid those things. See more R P 07/04/2022 I think 2001 Maniacs might be my favorite movie to watch during the 4th of July season. A great comedic slasher movie with Robert England and Lin Shaye. 2001 Maniacs puts a whole new twist on the "Southern Hospitality" saying. I'll never think of it the same again. (https://foreverfinalgirl.com/2001-maniacs/) See more 05/04/2022 I think this movie is great See more justin t 02/15/2022 Not the best movie of all time but still a fun and violent horror. There is some great gore, although it is slapstick gore. It is not the funniest or that memorable. Fun but uninspiring serial killer townsfolk brutally murdering people. See more steve d 06/26/2020 surprisingly funny and fun film that embraces the unintended cheese of the original and made it a blast. See more Read all reviews
