100 Bloody Acres is as mercurial as its central character, breezily offbeat one moment, spattered in gonzo gore the next. It's as if the filmmakers ground the bits of other movies fine enough that it made a rich foundation for their own.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
It sounds appalling, but "100 Bloody Acres" has a spring in its step.
This fairly rote tale of rural ghouls and their passing-through prey has its own hick charm, mostly because of performers who never overplay their hands.
"100 Bloody Acres" is gory good fun.
Though entertaining enough as a genre exercise, the film is too simplistic to transcend its base concept.
