I have seen this movie. No real structure to speak of but entertaining.
*SPOILER* Nice chainsaw fight at the end.

First thing I have to say about this movie, if you haven't seen it yet - SEE IT! It's not a great movie, but it is insane. There's always something going on. It's dumb and it's perverted and all that, but it's very well made visually, and the music is wonderful, and it's surreal, and the wit is very dark but pretty smart. The movie is just absolutely packed with stuff. I don't know if it's mainly going to appeal to whatever you like, but it's definitely a highly memorable movie.
The acting is pretty bad, except for the leads Nancy Parsons (?) and Rory Calhoun (oh, and Wolfman Jack, the famous radio personality from the 1960's and 70's is in the movie too). And the movie is worth watching just for them if for nothing else. It's not gory at all, but it's wild. And it's very creepy. It's basically about fanatics. The main characters have a religious reason for doing everything they're doing and they're also farmers, so they have a down-home kind of philosophy and are a lot of fun to watch doing stuff.
Perhaps the funniest scene is when a really weird pair of fetishist-tourist-weirdos who are into every sexual kink in the book invite the 2 (Vincent and Ida) to participate in their bedroom hijinks. So they smile and show up to the room with tanks of gas and these 2 religious people are pretending to be sex-maniacs. You would completely expect religious people to freak out about that sort of thing, right? Not Vincent and Ida.

Actually, aren't Vincent and Ida supposed to be brother and sister? I can't remember for sure, but it seems like that's the case. That makes the swinging scene even more creepy/hilarious.

Yes they were brother and sister.
And I love how different they were. He was more "nice" and fatherly. She was more explosive, less even tempered.

Thanks. It looks like that owl who always said - "Give a hoot, don't pollute." What was his name?

Woodsy Owl? Is he still around? I haven't seen one of those ads since the early 90s.
There was McGruff the Crime Dog too. He's still around, but a different person is voicing him now. He doesn't seem as authoritative as he used to. The old one really did make me want to do my part to help take a bite out of crime. The new one just doesn't cut it. I think he may have lost some weight too.

Ha! Yeah, I haven't noticed but I may have heard something about it.
I think the owl was back from the 1970's and McGruff the Crime Dog was from the 1980's.
Want to know something even funnier? Smokey the Bear? "Only You... Can Prevent Forest Fires"? I think he was back from the 1950's! There's a parody of him in a Disney cartoon back from like the 1950's or 60's, one of the Humphrey the Bear and the Ranger of Jollystone Park (I think that was the name of the park) cartoons.
