"From its genuinely catchy theme song, "The Rebel Yell" (composed and sung by the director himself), to its effectively creepy ending, this is easily Lewis' best film. Although BLOOD FEAST (1963) is just as gory as TWO THOUSAND MANIACS, the violence here is more disturbing."

TV Guide

"Gleeful and perverse, Two Thousand Maniacs! knowingly toys with stereotypes, and not only the jug-swilling, cud-spitting, yee-hawing Beverly Hillbillies kind, as the ever-obtuse Tom White (Kerwin) asks, “Now, this is 1965, and a hundred years ago it was 1865, right? So, what happened in 1865?”"
