When a plane carrying six friends has engine problems off of the Washington coast, the pilot must make a crash landing. With nobody hurt except for the plane, our friends try to make the best of their situation and have an impromptu camping trip as they wait for help. Everything goes fine until they stumble onto a little rustic house that would have been better left alone. After meeting the kindly old couple and their children who live there, one thing is for sure, the island isn't big enough for both groups.

Somewhere between The Hills Have Eyes and Wrong Turn exists American Gothic, or as it could have been called Ma and Pa Kettle Kill Everyone In Sight. All of the kills you see coming a mile off and there in no gore and no nudity, but the creepiness makes up for that.

The story is simple, Ma and Pa and their three children Fanny, Teddy and Woody living out there by their lonesomes. Ma and Pa left all things modern behind and their kids, which are uber-creepy, are all basically 50 year old homicidal maniacs who play little kids games that end up with someone dying.

Fanny, who is played by Janet Wright, is downright scary and her two brothers are equally as weird. Rod Steiger stars as Pa and pretty much plays a creepy ass father who has probably cornholed all his children. Think of an evil preacher and you pretty much get the gist of the role.

American Gothic is a pretty good slasher flick, just no blood. There is a decent ending, but everything else you see coming from a mile off. Worth a rent if nothing else is available.
