I'm watching this little horror-comedy gem right now. It just pushes all the right buttons for me. The humor makes me laugh out loud. The two lead characters are totally lovable. The supporting characters are quirky and mostly fun. The darkened cinematography sets the perfect tone as does the pleasing musical score. Cozy horror at its finest. I would check in at the "Motel Hello" anytime!
Ida gets most of the film's best lines, and as much as I like Vincent, Ida is my favorite!
"It takes all kinds of critters, to make Farmer Vincent fritters!"

OMG, this is a really horrible but likable flick. The acting is so sub-par it's comical. I recall wanting to see it because Rory Calhoun was in it, but my oh my! - how he looks beaten from the hunk I recall from years ago.

I love Motel Hell! Had the DVD for years and can't wait to scoop up the Scream Factory steelbook in October. I slept on the original release, and it makes me glad after seeing this glorious artwork:

Remember seeing in at the cinema in London when it came out. Dreadful but fun as I recall.

Its a lot of fun. Chainsaw battle!
Its Wolfman Jack's scenes that make me laugh out loud. And the wacky swingers.
Even though we know what they're made of, Vincent and Ida make his smoked pork treats aound so delicious i almost wanna try some.

avocadojoe , I don't think you are aware of this, but I heard it on the grapevine from Millie. Farmer Vincent is Carrie White's father. It wasn't just that one night when he came home from the roadhouse stinking of whiskey and took Margaret, but this particular night, Margaret kicked Ralph, (as she knew him), out of the house and Vincent was raging. He got his love for the lord from Margaret White, but Vincent did a bad thing. He went to his sister's and took Ida in a drunken rage and Oh my, how she liked it, all that dirty screwing.
Well, what you are seeing here is Vincent and Ida's offspring. She does look a bit like Ida and Bruce, so what I am saying has some validity. Well, this secret offspring has some serious behaviorial issues as you can see and it is only Pinky that can keep her from going off the edge. She wants to be just like her and loves anything pink. This was a interview that was being used to promote Vincent's smoked meats. V&I were hog tied up with an extra batch of stoned groupies to contend with before Bruce came snooping around in their secret garden. They sent Winifred, that's her name, instead to be interviewed. Here, she was actually asked if she likes tubing, but won't sit still for a minute.

It was most certainly fun in its own unique black way, but it was by no means "dreadful". It was rather skillfully presented and original horror film-making. There is nothing else like it, apart from Mother's Day - 80', if one wants to correlate them both from the same year and the satiric edge that was well played in both.

Wow. meanwhile... The result of Vincent taking Ida is Ida giving birth to Doris, "The Chinese One". And "Big Buns Bunweil" was the nurse present who assisted in Ida's baby deliverance and the reason for "Big Buns" extreme hatefulness is that Pinky has all the scoop on her. And when nobody else is looking, Pinky cuts a look at "Big Buns", (rolling her eyes in the back of her head) in the cafeteria line that meat is meat and the Bunweil bitch was the second biggest cannibal in all of the state of Tennessee. Meanwhile, Ida continues to send BB threatening letters, exclaiming that all "Big Buns" needs is a fat sausage, burnt crisp, to go in between and then she'd be good enough to eat. Then one day Ida, feeling bored and unappreciated, takes a Greyhound bus to California (unbeknownst to her, Pinky's braindead oldsters occupy the seats two rows behind her) and intimidates her way into the convalescence home, faking her way with a dual Master's degree in Physical Therapy and Meat Smokin' (she puts down Elaine Joyce and Wolfman Jack as references) and faster than you can say "oh, goody! I love surprises!" Ida has the patients tubin' in the pool.....

I love surprises!" Ida has the patients tubin' in the pool..... Uncanny how Carrie and Pinky are identical. The old codgers are not really Pinky's parents, but imposters. Margaret had twins, but someone forgot to tell Stephen King. Pinky's parents are from Roman's coven and were sent to suss out Pinky for their next fertility ceremony at the time. As it stood, she kept on giggling through it and it really annoyed the Devil when Pinky started blowing bubbles in her coke bottle so he gave up.
The incestuously born Winifred got more of her looks and crazy persona from Ida rather than Vincent and Ida is thinking of bringing her along to work at the spa and help her blow up the tubes. It cuts into her eating time. Bunweil can't find any decent staff to work for her because she is a temperamental self-serving cow. The real reason why Millie isn't working at the spa anymore, is because she made a play for Mass and Bunweil was not happy about it. The dreary Mass fell asleep half way through their fornication, so Millie gave up on him.
dirtypillows Nurse Ratched is Bunweil's older sister. Their favorite game when they were kids was "Medication Time". They doped up many neighborhood kids with Coke and Aspro and performed lobotomies on them with red twizzler vines. They would twist quite nicely up their nostrils. Ratched may be taking over from Bunweil at the spa, plus she needs the therapy pool since Mac wrung out her neck and she deservedly has had problems ever since.
