...Ah, the rural South, where nearly every-one--at least in popular fiction--is either ruttin' randy or picturesquely deranged. Annie can't do a good deed without getting whacked around by Donnie, the inbred ingrate. When she complains to a cop about him, the cop offers this blithe appraisal: "He's high-strung." No more so than the script, by Billy Bob Thornton and Tom Epperson; it is given to violent outbursts amid its sullen patches, and plot twists that don't strain plausibility so much as ignore...

Ah, the rural South, where nearly every-one - at least in popular fiction - is either ruttin' randy or picturesquely deranged. Annie can't do a good deed without getting whacked around by Donnie, the inbred ingrate. When she complains to a cop about him, the cop offers this blithe appraisal...
...that hormone-injected dinner bird, setting up lighted lawn decorations (in Springfield Fla. this week, one man put up a display of two reindeer getting it on, much to his neighbors' horror-but that's an exception), and frantic last-minute dashes to the mall for almost-forgotten gifts. Ah yes, Holiday Happiness is everywhere-everywhere, that is, except Hollywood, where the promise of even temporary stability makes everyone act even weirder than usual...
