Redneck Violence

Warning: Spoilers
This is a little drama about a bunch of stereotype rednecks in a south Georgia town. Our hero is in love with the married daughter of his boss. He is fresh out of prison and decides that he is going nowhere in his job, so he decides to rob a bank and go to Mexico, taking his bosses daughter with him.

After robbing the bank, and getting very little loot, they go back and rob it again.

The film is poorly recorded. Much of the dialogue is muffled. The music is sharp and clear, as it was recorded in a studio.

There are several "still" shots that I did not understand. One is during a song, and I think it might just be a time filler for a shot that was not long enough.

After several encounters with the "law," and several car changes, and a bloody violent battle where several die, we lose several of the principals in an unexpected accident. In the end, our hero gets away.

Dub Taylor is the best actor in this film. That should tell you alot. He laughs alot.

You've been warned.
