Author: bukakkefriedchicken from fabulous Las Vega$!

Um...wow. This is really something entirely different. It couldn't have been any weirder if the actors walked backwards and talked like Popeye. The story involves two crazed brothers and their female captive, some kids stranded in the middle of nowhere with a broken-down van, and a guy in a Nixon mask creeping around killing people. Some half-baked supernatural elements are applied in this, and there's a lot of hilariously inappropriate avant-garde musical interludes. When a movie turns out as strange as "Horror House on Hwy. 5", it becomes difficult to criticize it. I have a gut feeling that this was never intended to be anything but weird. God...I hope I'm right. Please, somebody tell me I'm right... 4.5/10
