- A group of teenagers on the road in Texas stop off at the wrong farm and encounter a family gone awry. Once abattoir workers, the decay of the Southern rural economy has left them unemployed, and the directionless father and sons take to using their butchering skills on passing people. One by one, the kids encounter members of the grisly family.
- The opening scene describes the events of the film and explains that what is about to happen may be disturbing.
The opening scene features the friends driving in a place which is unknown to them when a stranger is stranded and asks for a lift. This character is unusual and immediately begins to show conventional codes of horror. He cuts himself and proceeds to cut one of the friends. Blood is already a main prop in the opening scene which tells us that it is a horror.
