Not sure if I fully understand you, but the cheese and crackers line was OBVIOUSLY put into the film to get a laugh from the audience. So were a lot of other lines: "Come on, think douche bag!" And now, just some brief thoughts: SPOILERS FOLLOW Say whatever you want about the film, but at the end of the day I was entertained. I really liked when they met the old lady; I wished they stayed there a little longer (she should of killed the kids, or at least one of them). I feel like he could of made that scene so much creepier (I LOVED when she slapped the grils hand). I thought it was also funny in all the right places ("heart throb", fake tree, cough medicine) and the audience I was with ate those scenes up too. In fact the audience I was with seemed to really like it. But the scene that sticks out to me the most was Lequizamos death scene. From when they see the hanging bodies to him cutting his wrists, I just thought it was brilliant and emotional. It also had many flaws, and some more work on the screenplay would have been ideal, but I'll still give it a 6.5/10. Worth the money and I'd reccomend it.
