Andre the Butcher

Ron Jeremy has made a living in film.  Most of the films that he has been involved with are pornographic.  That's why I was so happy to see him with his clothes on for this movie.
 
A group of cheerleaders is heading down to Florida for regional competition.  The Beavers and their rivals, the Game Cocks.  While driving down the highway, the Game Cocks throw stuff at the Beavers and drive off.  When the Game Cocks truck breaks down, the Beavers stop by.  Not to help, but to kick their rumps.  While the Game Cocks are recovering from the butt kicking that they just received, they get a visit from Andre the Butcher.  We learn towards the end of the film that Andre is a lost soul on Earth doing the devil's bidding by sending more souls to hell and Andre gets to eat the corpse.
 
The Beavers don't get to make it very far down the road after the accident caused by Cookie "stimulating" Jimbo.  The decide to walk, looking for help.  They don't find any help, but they do happen to find a vacant house.  The Beavers break into the house and begin to relax a little.  In the meantime, two convicts have escaped from the local prison.  It must be a problem around there, because the opening of the movie also had an escaped convict that Andre threw a butcher knife into his right eye.
 
You know the formula.  One by one the characters get taken out by Andre.  Every so often there is a COOL DEATH SCENE ALERT like when Andre head butts a convict and crushes his skull.  And in the end, they stop Andre.  There aren't as many cool death scenes as I wanted, but it works.  Andre gets his right arm blown off twice.  I say twice because there is a scene where he sews it back on and another scene where he uses a heavy duty stapler gun to reattach his arm.  It could have been a little more comedic too, but over all, if you know what you are sitting down to watch, it's not that bad of a flick.
 
I give this movie 2 1/2 out of 5 old men with harmonicas.
