Pre-Order This Highly Anticipated SCREAM FACTORY Home Entertainment Release Today!
People
come from far and wide to sample Farmer Vincent's distinctively
flavored dried, smoked sausages, but one might well ask why there are so
few people staying at the nearby kitschy Motel Hello. Also, have you
ever wondered about the secret ingredients that make
his meats taste so darn good? The ‘80s cult classic horror-comedy film
MOTEL HELL, directed by Kevin Connor (At The Earth's Core,
The House Where Evil Dwells) takes on a frighteningly funny look
into the different kinds of critters that make up Farmer Vincent's
fritters with plenty of surprises.

A film by Kevin Connor, this crazy chiller stars Rory Calhoun (Angel), Paul Linke (CHiPS), Nancy Parsons (Porky's), Nina Axelrod (Cobra),
and legendary DJ Wolfman Jack. While many of its contemporaries were literally trying to scare the wits out of people,
MOTEL HELL balanced horror with humor, making audiences cringe
and laugh at its lurid tale. A modest success upon its theatrical
release, video rentals and cable showings have kept it alive and
solidified its slasher status. Its creepy chainsaw battle
still excites today.
Farmer
Vincent Smith (Rory Calhoun) and his sister Ida (Nancy Parsons) run the
respectable Motel Hello where they also produce and sell popular meat
products.
But the wonderful flavor that makes up Vincent's locally legendary
smoked meats has a special ingredient. Their secret garden is filled
with "animals" that they ambush, capture, and raise buried in the earth.
But when the seemingly kindly couple, who gleefully
dispatch their victims with aplomb, take in and care for a young woman
(Nina Axelrod) who survived a motorcycle accident, she creates a rivalry
between Vincent and his unsuspecting, slow-witted sheriff brother (Paul
Linke) for her affection. Will the sibling
squabble unravel Vincent and Ida's undercover enterprise?
