Four jewel thieves(Karen, Kirk, Phillip, Susan) steal a jeep and end up in Hillbilly Country. They abandon the jeep on the side of the road, walk through the woods which seems like eons until they spot a small farm house in the middle of nowhere. They hide out there till the heat cools down. A dim - witted wife (Reba Sue Craven) and her religious alcoholic old man (Harlan P. Craven)live there and boy they are boring. Harlan gets drunk on his own moonshine and religiously listens to radio sermons. Reba is emotional wrecked and she just wants to get laid but drunk hubby is not giving her any loving. Kirk, who doesn't have an off button, eventually nails Reba. Kirk's girlfriend gets wind of this and she gets into a scuffle with Reba. Reba kills his girlfriend with a planter (I could be wrong; memory doesn't serve me well on this. I do apologize.)FAST FORWARD: Kirk wants in on Harlan's moonshine business so Harlan stabs him repeatedly in the neck with a pitchfork. Harlan and his doofus partner, Tobe, freak out and leave in the stolen jeep. Phillip gives chase. The boys run out of gas and hide out in the woods. Phillip hunts them down like the animals they are and only Tobe dies thanks to a bear trap that Harlan put there last year. Harlan, drunk off his ass and holding on to a makeshift walking stick gets down on his knees and prays to god to get him out of this. Phillip eventually catches up to Harlan. Harlan beats the life out of Phillip with the walking stick. Harlan hobbles back home happy he survived the life and death situation. All is lost however when Reba gets greedy and off screen shoots and kills Harlan. I guess diamonds are a girl's best friend. John Carradine spews out quotes from the bible in between scenes. There is no gore unless you count the red paint on the actor's faces. PG - 13 at best.
