Satanic hippies with rabies!, 19 September 2003
Author: bukakkefriedchicken from fabulous Las Vega$!

Totally likable outrageousness is a drive-in sleaze favorite...evil devil-worshiping hippies stroll into Anytown, U.S.A. and wreak mayhem. A pudgy little boy serves them up some meat pies injected with the blood of a rabid dog, and soon there's a contagion that consumes the town! Rather 'Night of the Living Dead' inspired at times, it actually has moments of genuine scariness and some pretty potent gore. Recommended- 6.5/10
