Unholy Matrimony Backwoods Double Feature!

Wealthy old coot Shugfoot Rainey wants to trade in his over-the-hill mistress for his young niece, "Baby Doll" Jonelle, a pouty-faced stripper from New Orleans. But Linda has a surprise for both: according to Texas law, she's Shugfoot's COMMON LAW WIFE (1963) and has no intention of leaving quietly. Jonelle, however, is so eager to get her greedy mitts on Uncle Rainy's loot that she ups the ante by having a moronic moonshiner put cyanide in Shugfoot's whiskey! All of which leads to the two women eventually squaring off in a surprisingly violent showdown...With its small-town setting and hilariously rotten characters, COMMON LAW WIFE is an overripe slice of Southern Sleaze courtesy of cult director Larry Buchanan, the outrageous auteur of Mars Needs Women!

Twenty-year-old JENNIE, WIFE/CHILD (1968) is unhappily married to the way-too-old-for-her Albert Peckingpaw. So much so that she puts the moves on Mario, the hunky hired hand. But when Albert realizes the two have been makin’ bacon in the barn, he drugs them, chains them in the cellar, and digs their graves. Which is when Lulu Belle, the cheerful, "town floozie," unexpectedly pays Albert a visit... From the director of The Sadist and featuring music by Davie Allan and the Arrows and photography by Vilmos Zsigmond (Close Encounters of the Third Kind), this exudes the long-lost charms of an evening at a Carolina drive-in!
