Farmer Vincent kidnaps unsuspecting travellers and is burying them in his garden. Unfortunately for his victims, they are not dead. He feeds his victims to prepare them for his roadside stand. His motto is: It takes all kinds of critters...to make Farmer Vincents fritters. The movie is gory, but is also a parody of slasher movies like Last House on the Left.

Features
Disc 01 •It Takes All Kinds: The Making of Motel Hell (1080p; 24:33) is another great compendium of interviews from Shout! Factory. When Robert Jaffe says revisiting Motel Hell is like having a family reunion, it may strike some as an uncomfortably accurate description. Some of Steven-Charles' comments are NSFW (as they say). •Shooting Old School with Thomas Del Ruth (1080p; 15:45) is a very interesting piece with the film's cinematographer. It's interesting to hear him discuss the new opportunities post production techniques provide now that he didn't have at the time. •Ida, Be Thy Name: The Frightful Females of Fear (1080p; 18:09) features an okay assemblage of talking heads opining on what makes for a good female horror villain. •From Glamour to Gore: Rosann Katon Remembers Motel Hell (1080p; 11:28) features an interview with one of Farmer Vincent's victims. •Another Head on the Chopping Block: An Interview with Paul Linke (1080p; 14:52) focuses on the hapless cop of the film. •Motel Hell Trailer (1080p; 2:40) •Behind the Scenes Gallery (1080p 2:33). If you've ever wondered how they did the heads in the garden, this provides a peek. •Posters and Production Gallery (1080p; 17:38) •Commentary with Director Kevin Connor, Moderated by Dave Parker DVD Copy
