Why did only the men die?


The only woman who was killed in the movie was the prostitute at the beginning.

From then on, only men died and all the women survived.

WTF? It could've been a better movie, if only it wasn't so predictable and sexist.

Can anyone answer?

I don't think a higher body count would have saved this movie.

Other than Robert Englund's portrayal of Buck (which was a total hoot), the only interesting things about this movie were the woman chained to the bed and the little girl under the porch. Kill them and there's no reason to even finish watching this movie. Otherwise, it's just a mumbling, ugly old guy feeding a few people to his pet alligator. *yawn*

Hey, you forgot about the monkey and the dog. Maybe the animals were female. So, why did the monkey have to die? Why was it even in the movie other than to be vaguely creepy? What a hot mess...

Uhm... maybe to give us the viewers an opportunity to see female nudity and more shots of the beautiful women involved in this eh project.

Not to be rude, DaVooz, but WHO CARES? If I want to watch female nudity, I watch a f--in' porn.
