In what seems to be a recurring theme, a group of young, good-looking women are terrorized and/or murdered by a bunch of in-breed country folk.

The set-up of the story has three sisters inheriting a lakeside motel as they take a weekend trip to check out their inheritance.

2 of the 3 sisters are joined by a boyfriend, a female friend, and another couple, as they load up the RV and hit the road after the funeral. Meanwhile the 3rd sister (played by Tara Gerard) has foregone the services to drive up to the motel by herself. Can we smell impending doom for the solo traveler?

Anyway, she arrives by herself, gets a room, and settles in with a bottle of booze. A little bit later there is a pounding on the door, then a sudden break in as she’s hit in the face by one of 2 long-haired, overall-wearing, country in-breds, who again, as in so many movies of the like, can't or don't talk.

The girl is then held down while she has her ankles duct taped to the floor. I'm thinking to myself, hmmm alright good start. Then only to be followed with, WTF…those assholes, as they drive a rod through her ankles so they can later attach a weight to it and dump her in the lake.

What really sucks about this scene is that the 2 wackos are horny f*cks as we find out later in the flick. And IMO, this was the hottest of a very appealing cast.

Anyway, the first scene was a foreboding to how the rest of the movie would play out. Later, after a nude scene, one of the girls played by Malea Richardson (now dressed of course), is secured to a tree for an implied rape. How is she secured? With a pickaxe through the face into the tree, that’s how. I can’t think of a more appealing look for someone, can you? Those idiots!

Then there’s another rape where again nothing is shown. The girl stumbles away afterwards…but with her pants on. The only real Gimp scene is with the 2 remaining sisters (Kelsey Crane & Kelsey Weeden) tied to chairs.

So many missed opportunities in this one. Especially since the 2 remaining sisters are kept alive so that the clan can increase their numbers by breeding with the girls. Then I started thinking…so why then did they kill the first sister. It turns out she was only a ½ sister, so that would mean that the bloodline would be tainted. The rules those silly hill-people live by.
