Production

Redneck Zombies was one of the first films shot entirely on videotape and then released to the home-video market (making it a straight-to-video film). The film was once used as an answer in a 1980s edition of Trivial Pursuit, the question being "What film has the tagline 'They're Tobacco Chewin', Gut Chompin', Cannibal Kinfolk from Hell!'". Director Pericles Lewnes went on to work as a special effects supervisor on several other Troma productions.[1] William Benson (Pa) went on to become an Emmy-award winning director for NASA.

Release

The film was released on VHS and DVD by Troma Entertainment. A new 20th anniversary edition of the film was released on DVD January 27, 2009. It includes the never before released soundtrack on CD.[2] In 2022 the film was re-released by VHS Haven on a limited edition VHS.[3] The film was released on blu-ray in 2023 by Degausser Video, a straight-to-video imprint of Vinegar Syndrome.[4]
