This time around the Southern residents of Pleasant Valley take their cannibalistic Guts N’ Glory Jamboree on the road to Iowa where they encounter spoiled Northern heiresses Rome and Tina Sheraton and the cast and crew of their “Road Rascals” reality show. Performing “The Bloodiest Show on Earth,” our Southern Maniacs prove to be more than ratings killers in what director John Landis calls “one of the rare sequels that surpasses the original.” http://www.texasfrightmareweekend.com/lifetype/post/1/229 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 16:12:56 -0500 <img src="http://www.texasfrightmareweekend.com/images/dnart.jpg" alt="" /></br> <P>Longtime TFW sponsor <a href="http://www.vcientertainment.com/">VCI Entertainment</a> has informed us that they will release the classic TV horror movie <strong>Dark Night of the Scarecrow</strong> for the first time ever on DVD.
