Plot
College students Anderson, Nelson, and Cory become lost while heading to Daytona Beach for spring break, and follow a 'Detour' sign that leads them to the southern town of Pleasant Valley, led by eccentric mayor Buckman. Three other travelers - Ricky, Kat, and Joey - arrive shortly afterwards, and Buckman tells them that for the next two days they will be honored guests at the town's annual 'Guts N Glory Jubilee.' They are joined by two other travelers, biker couple Malcolm and Leah, and all are given rooms at an inn run by Granny Boone and her son Hucklebilly.
