After her drunken stepfather tries to rape her, a 17 year old girl runs away from home and manages to hitchhike her way straight into a nest of Satanic hillbillies who are collecting victims for a big Easter sacrifice. This flick takes absolutely forever to get going (the protagonists are completely oblivious to any danger until well past the 50 minute mark), but the payoff is OK with some appropriately goofy Satanic incantations and gory throat slittings.

Despite the bad acting and lackluster story line the movie has a gritty grind house feel and a few good kills. The story starts slow but picks up about midway through.
