Any movie with two deaths by anal penetration within the first 20 minutes is a classic in my book.

When the American Chicken Bunker, a military themed fast food restaurant, builds its latest chain restaurant on the site of an ancient Native American burial ground, the displaced spirits take revenge on unsuspecting diners and transform them into chicken zombies! Now, it’s up to a dimwitted counter boy, his collegiate lesbian ex-girlfriend and a burqa-wearing fry cook to put an end to the foul feathered menace once and for all.

6What people say
75 minutes of the worst, most racist "musical" you've ever seen in your life and then 25 minutes of the most absurdly explicit body fluid gags (shit, vomit, blood, cum, spit, this movie's got it all!) and Romero/Fulci level gore of the 2000s. Real mixed bag but I'll confess to being impressed by its sheer existence after a while.
"Drop that rectum!"An American Chicken Bunker Restaurant opens up in Tromaville, built on an sacred Indian burial ground - what could possible go wrong? ... oh yeah and this is a musical!"Be gentle this is my first time!"What the hell can you say about this? ... Well with the perfect amount of offensiveness (there's a perfect amount??) well in other words leave your moral compass at the door you'll have no use for it here, with it's tightly packed buns of blood, shit and puke that will make even Colonel Sanders blush and say "ohhh you!" that all go to make this a classic chicken sandwich of a movie and may also be the best musical ever since the little awful Annie movie (which to be honest is not that bad!)
