Motel Hell

“It takes all kinds of critters to make Farmer Vincent fritters!”

On a rural highway, Vincent Smith (Rory Calhoun) and his sister Ida (Nancy Parsons) catch travelers outside their motel, bury them alive in the garden, and feed them up until they're ready for the smokehouse. The sausages go out under Vincent's name, and people drive for miles to buy them. Kevin Connor plays it as a small-town business story, which is where the horror comes from: a man proud of his product, and nobody asking what's in it.
