A look at the title led me to believe this would be a horror comedy/spoof, but I was wrong and was pleasantly surprised.
This movie is a cross between the old classic "Duel" and "Texas Chainsaw Massacre".
The Duel theme is at the beginning of the movie and repeats throughout - a mysterious truck taunts and terrorizes a car for an unknown reason. This theme is well played, as the director Linbergh has obviously learned what made Duel work, the ominous representation of the truck as it pursues the vehicle. The camera work here was impressive. What I don't understand is why you have a bunnyman drive the truck, which is unusual to say the least, yet then present the truck driver as an unknown entity behind tinted windows (a la Duel).
The TCM theme is obvious, a group of lost youngsters being chased, tortured and killed by a chainsaw wielding maniac. Except, the maniac is wearing a bunny outfit.
The movie is pretty well made, especially considering its low budget. What I just can't figure out is why the bunny outfit? Unlike clowns, for example, bunnies and bunny outfits are not scary nor are they creepy. There appears to be no significance to the outfit, as it could have been any other animal outfit. Oh well...
This movie will not change the world, but I enjoyed it enough and it is certainly better than some of the reviews here would indicate.
