Synopsis:

A group of teenagers on the road in Texas stop off at the wrong farm and encounter a family gone awry. Once abbatoir workers, the decay of the Southern rural economy has left them unemployed, and the directionless father and sons take to using their butchering skills on passing people. One by one, the kids encounter members of the grisly family.
