Multipak Mondays 001

Trying something out. Who knows how long I will keep doing this. But I want to talk about a different DVD Mulitpack every Monday. Gonna try to stick to the cheap budget label ones. Where you get 10 films for $5. With most of them being from VHS sources.

Bad Taste Theater Presents Rural Folk
Brentwood
$5

Got this pack of 4 films back in 2008. I think it was mainly cause I needed something to help me hit the free shipping limit. Never bothered watching it till the other night. When I watched all four films back to back,

Inbred Rednecks-2001-135 minutes

A group of rednecks want to become rich by winning cockfights. They have this huge rooster,who they name Bigass Rooster. While there is some funny parts. The film is way too long. There was no need for this to be over 2 hours long. It would have worked much better as a 70 minute or so short film.

Super Badass-2003-72 minutes

A very strange and surreal comedy. Super Badass is a bounty hunter in a big city. The plot,what little I could make sense of,involves a clown riding around in a VW bug with flames painted on the hood. Hookers made up like clowns. And people trading peanut butter sandwiches for blowjobs. But at 72 minutes it is the perfect length for the madness.

Cornman-2001-70 minutes

A guy gains the power to talk to corn. And teams up with his sidekick Butter Boy to fight crime. This seems to be trying to be a parody of the old movie serials. And while the cast tries their best ,lots of the scenes fall flat.

Dogs in Quicksand-1999-90 minutes

Someone is murdered in a small rural town. And this sets off a strange chain of events. I really don't remember much about this besides it seems like every 8 minutes there is a sex scene. Where usually the female makes sure to cover herself up with the covers.

Cornman and Super Badass are the only reasons to track down this set. But even then I wouldn't pay more than $5 for it. Since Brentwood/BCI is out of business I am sure this is long out of print. Looking on Ebay it seems people are trying to sell it for 10 or 15 bucks. It is not worth that much.
