My rating:
Will I watch it again? No.
I've said it before but it's worth repeating. I get a sense of how others feel when their nationality is stereotyped in movies when I see crap like this. I grew up in the Deep South and seeing Southerners depicted in such a cartoonish way is painful and embarrassing. The accents are so bad that it hurts hearing them. The comedy is dumb, the characters are dumb and it's shot like what you'd expect from HGL. He made this one right on the heels of the movie he's most famous for, TWO THOUSAND MANIACS (1964). That had dumb yokels, two but at least that one had lots of gory kills (and like this one, sadly, there's no nudity...what the hell did that man have against boobs?). I'd say skip this one unless you're torturing yourself to sit through every HGL picture he made and that's a lot.
