Andre the Butcher
30 July 2010
Warning: Spoilers
Ron Jeremy is after cheerleaders, just not in the way you believe. He's a soul reaper for Satan and in order to defeat him, the body will have to be blessed with a prayer(and holy water)to release him from the bondage of hell..or something like that. Andre was once a nice, church-going fellow who sold his soul after God betrayed him by taking his family in an accident. It's just unfortunate for cheerleaders heading cross country to a contest when they come across Andre. The Beaver(yuk, yuk)Cheerleader Squad, two escaped cons, and a tough-talking sista( the county deputy; with a bad case of arachnophobia) packing a shot gun and attitude will have to contend with Andre.

Andre is impervious to death. Bullets are fired at his direction hitting everything but him, in one particular scene. Faye Canada's Deputy Hollingsworth is able to take Andre's arm off with a shot gun blast, but he just staples it back on..reflexes fine, all good as new. He seems to have up, close, and personal camera recordings of his targets, parlaying their "sins" back to them via television screen that is unplugged. Oh, and Andre has a device that cuts off power such as a vehicle which halts our group's plans to escape.

Ludicrous plot(intentionally silly, I imagine)allows Jeremy to have all kinds of fun killing folks. I believe this is the first time I can recall seeing a head butt decapitating someone. Or, urine used as holy water! A movie this stupid will have it's supporters("It's not to be taken seriously")and Jeremy will bring the curious to see him wield a machete and butcher knives(he also wears a blow torch helmet!). A running gore gag has a deputy(whose whole lower half is removed)begging for everyone who passes by to kill him, his intestines strewn out on the ground..yep, it's that kind of movie, people. Does include lesbian smooching and camera shots up and down Heather Joy Budner's legs and body(although, I do believe the filmmakers used a body double for her breasts' shots). April Billingsly, the heroine, gets to kickbox Jeremy in the finale so that might interest some viewers. Gene Nash is the old timer hillbilly narrator with a harmonica..you know old folks who use profanity are always funny, right. Some cannibal jokes are included as well as the usual sexual innuendo(notice one scene where Billingsly and Budner discuss virginity and sexual orientation using Vienna sausages).
