Blood
Salvage, from 1990, is the type of movie that this page is made for.
It's a low rent Texas Chainsaw knock off about a hillbilly and his two
"slow" sons who kidnap people and keep them alive with hillbilly science
in order to sell their body parts to Mr. Hand from Fast Times at
Ridgemont High. Not too many familiar faces in this but John Saxon is in
it and Evander Holyfield makes one of the most pointless cameos of all time.
The actual plot of the flick is that the main hillbilly has fallen in
love with John Saxon's wheelchair bound beauty pagent contestant
daughter and kidnaps the family with intentions of making her walk again
with his vague backwoods medical know how. The fact that in order to
make that happen he will have to take some spinal fluid from her younger
brother doesn't seem to bother him. Make no mistake, this movie is
ridiculous but it's the glorious kind of ridiculous. The skinny son
(because of course there is a fat one and a skinny one) is so over the
top and awful at acting that he stands out as the funniest part for me.
I don't know how hard it is to come by, I bought a bootleg of it a few
years ago at a convention because I always remembered the cover art from
the video store as a kid, but if you can find it give it a watch. - TG
