The hills have eyes

You forgot Deliverance. Cannibal families and rural monsters aren't a common thing, but you have to remember that the US has several giant forests and mountain ranges spanning hundreds of square miles each. We're left to fill these voids with our imaginations and some people created a nightmare lying just beyond the tree line for all of us. Sure, you could probably find a couple of these types of people in the country, but it's not every time you stumble into a forest like the movies would have you believe.

I have a theory that these movies (and horror movies in general) are the natural evolution of fairy tales a la brothers grimm, h.c. anderson etc.
same as e.g. hansel and gretel, the hills have eyes, wrong turn and chainsaw texas massacre are essentially cautionary tales about strangers / going where you don't belong / Seeing what you shouldn't see.
similarly to hansel and gretel, red riding hood etc. the central protagonist family is often from a blue collar background, explaining why hansel and gretel are going through the forest alone (the parents codlnt afford to raise the children anymore) and why the people in modern horror movies end up in backwater towns (couldnt afford to fly, coudlnt afford an international vacation etc.).

you got a perdy mouf user, come ere

Because the only people who could take offense to it don't have basic cable. They're the perfect victim because they're hundreds of miles from their bullies and have no idea that they're a joke to everybody.

Because city college kids have illusions of intellectual superiority, even though they're the biggest suckers of them all.

he mispoke, he isn't talking about hillbillies, he's talking about hill people, who are notoriously isolationist and unhinged

It's just liberal city-dwellers stereotypes and fear of good, honest, country people.

You're not wrong at all. It's also why the characters typically die after some kind of wrongdoing or sinning. Horror movies are cautionary tales in the same sense as old fairy tales. They're just too graphic to show to kids.

im not american but hillbillies are stereotyped as being very inbred like marrying their sister and cousins. dont know how much truths its based on though. in rural australia a family was discovered that came over from new zealand and were all in incestual relationships with other members of the family having heaps of mong kids and continuing the inbreeding for a few generations until the youngest kids were all very retarded.

City dwellers are retarded and before the internet they dictated American culture.

>came over from new zealand
kek, sure they weren't from tazzy bro?

I lived in the South and came across some inscrutable fucking hillbilly types to where it would not have been a stretch to imagine them engaging in cannibalistic shenanigans., and this wasn't even the deep, deep South. There are some seriously weird people out there. But in terms of films like this it's just another type of 'fear of the other' and naturally in a fictional story it's going to be exaggerated for dramatic and horrific effect.

this entire genre might be culturally related Sawney Bean story

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawney_Bean

>Alexander "Sawney" Bean was said to be the head of a 45-member clan in Scotland in the 16th century who were reportedly executed for the mass murder and cannibalization of over 1,000 people.
>The story appears in The Newgate Calendar, a crime catalogue of Newgate Prison in London. While historians tend to believe Bean never existed or that his story has been greatly exaggerated, it has passed into local folklore and become part of the Edinburgh tourism circuit.

In general the hills are a place beyond common civilization. Savagery lies there.

they aren't common, but here in there you can find little settlements isolated from mainstream society in places like West Virginia and Kentucky full of inbred people that don't even have birth certificates

>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colt_clan_incest_case

they even have a wikipedia page.

Why do these movies produced by affluent West Coast urbanites Democrat Jews portray rural Gentile Christian conservative Americans as cartoonish monsters? We'll never know.

Because the South is full of braindead morons

thats a joke to everyone on the mainland, guess you're not aussie

Its a combination of many things. Despite being cheap to produce, they fit perfectly in a society that hasnt left any Terra Incognita on this planet.
And here you have fictional situation where Civilization with the Internet, Machines, Morals etc. faces the old Monsters from our Myth but just in our backyard in comparison.

This. Always amusing when people go on about how those damn libruls demonize the poor white trash and hillbillies, the real salt of the earth american folk! They clearly have never interacted with these types of people because if they had they would realize they are absolute trash no different from ghetto dwelling niggers.

Fascinating

They definitely existed, just no where near as many victims as the stories say

you Scottish?

>Gentile Christian conservative Americans as cartoonish monsters?

lol the fucking hillbillies in movies have no political affiliation, or god, and pretty much exist to go after dumbass white people foolish enough to stumble into their territory

it's typically a common trope that local authorities are aware of them but have a don't bother us and we won't bother you arrangement, or are just in on it

This trash grows the food you eat

Not mine here

not efficiently, crop yield is going to be lower this year than ever before

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawney_Bean

never heard of this before. pretty interesting.

nah. i got the joke (that people from tasmania are inbred two-headed mongs) was just confirming they were actually from nz.

>In general the hills are a place beyond common civilization. Savagery lies there.

This goes back up to the old Greek

coolio

No they don't. And you not knowing the difference between farmers, either the ones who run large scale agricultural operations or even small scale farmers market types, and trailer park, druggie, meth head, hillbilly white trash tells me you don't know what the fuck you are talking about and are probably a city dweller yourself.

Sounds like you haven't drank your onions yet today. Flyover states are considered hillbilly to the coastal elite and from that the rest of the world

What are some *NEW* such films?

They come in Waves, right now its more the classic " Demonic " Horror like Annabelle etc.

Idk, but it's a cool ass aesthetic for a horror film.
A shame Leatherface was so disappointing.

Okay rural american monster person

I've been found out

why don't they make one involving mexicans and central americans somewhere in the southwest? they wouldn't even need to use makeup or prosthetics to make them look like subhuman creatures

Too close to reality. No need to film it when almost any amerimutt can just watch that by looking out of his window.

16th century sounded like a lot of fun.

Mexicans and a few agi engineers grow the food we eat.

Hillbillies are like roided up rednecks. Not even rednecks like hillbillies because some of them will literally shoot on sight. Theyre methed up and armed. Not all of them obviously but enough.

Does Bone Tomahawk count? Not exactly "hill people" in the sense that most would consider but it was refreshing to see a genuinely alien breed of natives. The concept of an uncontacted tribe so divorced from mainline humanity that they are incapable of speech is fascinating to me.
youtu.be/6J7xbEF8VTg

City swelling liberals know they are domestic cattle that would never survive outside of the support system of their human hives so they naturally fear the rural man and being out of their pens in an uncontrolled habitat in general.

I knew a burger guy who lived in kentucky for a while, he said their were the hill people who were called blue skins or something cause they all had very prominent blue veins and near transparent skin, also inbred alchies of course

Sorry, i eat clean europoor food

My point still stands.

Don't confuse yokel farmers with high-country dwellers

hollywood as no problem with doing that

farmers in the midwest are not the same as poor, worthless, whitenigger, dumb trailer trash of the south

People always fear the other. These movies are about rural fears of the countryside rising up against them and 'what do they need all of this isolation for?'. Zombie movies are about fear of the city and society turning en masse against you.

"The south" is a euphemism for negros. Northerners, westerners, and Midwesterners don't have nearly as many mongrels as does the south, add everything is worse in the south. Hardly a coincidence

it really doesn't

> Is any of this based in reality about rural american monster people?

Safer to walk a 100 miles in rural America than it is a 100 feet in "urban" America.

ITT: insecure urbanites and college kids. I eagerly await the collapse so rural people can adopt earth when the useless urbanites perish

The inbred Clan of cannibal hillbillies meme goes back even farther.

It's all true toon I'm unironically the ghost of one of the victims. Shit was not cash.

At the very least they arent pozzed malicious faggots trying to subvert any grounding in any sort of morality like city npcs are

For me? It's Home.

Try visiting a Walmart in a flyover state sometime.

On the practical side, it’s a relatively easy place to film in.
On the psychological side, imagine being in the heart of first world, yet also absolutely cut off from it. Rural America is a terrifying place to be trapped for people used to city or suburban living. Unlike Urban America and most of Europe, with the exception of rural Scotland, you can’t just bumble your way out, if nobody knows where you are, you are almost certainly fucked even if something hostile isn’t actively hunting you.

You have never been outside of urban centres

That's a really interesting take.

>concrete seas are the heart of the world
You should honestly just kill yourself

They're all over California and the Appalachians.

Please don’t be retarded, user.

>vacations need to be international
You too kys plz

>doubles down on his disgusting urbanism

I know you’re doing your best to make it look like rednecks can’t read, but at least try to work on that reading comprehension.

Are you insinuating that since i did not type "first" i cannot read? Concrete seas are not the heart of the world (first world or otherwise). Pol pot was right and he will be vindicated disgusting urban swine

Damn dude that's actually pretty neat

aporophobia

rual bad
city good

The term heart of the first world was referencing America as a whole and referring to the perspective of the average moviegoer, you absolute brainlet.

making fun of poor people is fairgame as long as they are white

>Concrete seas are not the heart of the world (first world or otherwise)
>first world or otherwise
>meaning america or otherwise
and you call me the brainlet, heh. or can you not see how you are directly implying that urban centres are the heart of the first world

You have never lived in white trash area if you think he is making shit up.

but user i live in rural america. what he is describing is a trip to the inner city

I can see you’re perpetually offended and finding ways to twist words to fit.
Leave that gay shit for tumblr

why are there no movies about Jewish cabals drinking baby blood? cause I bet that happens more than canibal hilbilies

>he thinks urban centres are the heart of the world

>ITT: asspained white trash sympathize with fictional cannibals
You hate to see that happen.

>what he is describing is a trip to the inner city
Oh it is 100% true even in white trash areas. Full of crackheads and can't go outside at night without getting robbed. Also they are very fond of fireworks.

they aren't alchies and the people he's talking about now take a medicine to not be so goddamn blue

I think there was a real case very similar to the one in that hillbilly episode of the x-files.
Though there has obviously been a couple inbred clans living on their own over the years. There was a pretty big one in Australia/NZ about a decade ago

Both can be great or total shit, tbdesu.

I didnt really like TXM 1 and 2, too cringe for me, is the third worth a watch?

That's because you are a dumb spic

It's because for a time America really was like that, not literally but during the 60s and 70s especially there was loads of serial killers on America's highways.
In that sense it taps into a real fear of strangers in remote areas.

The american moviegoing middle class has a deep seated fear of rural America, mostly due to never venturing outside their suburbs. Filmmakers knew to exploit that.

Are there similar myths about rural Russia?

>rural america is full of crackheads and robbers
>population density is less than 1person per square mile
wrong. urban centers are never great you cummie addicted moron

Actually most people out here are very friendly.

And crippled kids in India make my shoes what's your fucking point

le rural people are bad

what do they need myths for when their everyday life is a nightmare

That's how American leftists think the world looks outside of their ghettos.

no cause no one lives there

hillbilly cope

They're violent & crazy because they didn't go to community college

And that makes them so? You're a fucking retard.

Your arrogance is only matched by your stupidity.

Don't forget about the desert. A whole lot of desert graves nobody will ever find.

Deliverance

you could make one about russian teens going camping or something and running into fucked up fur trappers.

Good take user. The setting also is a little easier for suspension of disbelief. Mountainous area, communication limited etc but I do think Deliverance inspires a part in this type of story telling

>just watch that by looking out of his window.
you mean looking in the mirror

Jews are only safe and comfortable in urban environments. They're outsiders in close knit rural communities which is why they despise flyovers and westerns.

I love how threads like these always reveal the fact that a large portion of Yea Forums's userbase are neet rednecks, accounting for the reason they never go see movies and have shitty taste.

>states with less non whites have higher iqs

I went to a rural area just now and got attacked by a guy with two heads and a chainsaw within 15 minutes.
Thanks Yea Forums.

The average hillby looks like this and is nice and harmless. Will make you moonshine for 5$.

Thats Hollywood propaganda against people in the south.

There was also a married couple that owned a hotel in Kansas during the Old West days that would rob and murder anyone who came through alone during the slow season.

> Now if you think all of this stuff is sick and depraved, you haven’t seen anything yet. This is a different world. Among our small circle of friends, little things like rape, kidnapping, doggie fucking, stuff like that, are every-day occurrences. Matter of course. Here, anything can happen and often does. We like livin’ in the mountains, because it’s quiet, secluded, private and everybody minds their own business. The only close house belongs to our friends and they don’t hear or see anything

oh please once you've seen shit like babyfur diapers on DA any cannibal rednecks kind of pale in comparison

The difference between hillbilly guro stories and Furry guro stories is that the furry sins are highly documented and photographed

Dunno but the violent rape of that beaner broad got my cock hard.

You mean normal people who don't like disney trash.

Having moved to the South after living in NY most my life the stereotypes are overplayed and mostly bullshit. There's also a huge difference between the average person in the South and a hillbilly, rural isolationists can exist anywhere. The most "redneck" place I've ever lived was a small town in Pennsylvania for a couple years, that place was an absolute shithole compared to where I live now in the bible belt

But Montana has an IQ of 102 and California and any other big city in America that doesn't have a lot of Jews an IQ of 94?

Are you idiots?

Fucking love this dusty, greasy, kind of gothic rural America aesthetic.Any recommendations?I've watched True Detective and Carnivale.

Brazil beat them to it by about a hundred years.
