Bubba the Redneck Werewolf is a 2014 American Superhero Horror Comedy film.
Bubba Blanch is a dog catcher who spends his days lazing around and pining for his ex from a decade ago. Then, one day, the Devil shows up and offers him a deal. He gladly gives up his soul for bravery, strength and hair, and is turned into a werewolf. Unfortunately for Satan, Bubba does not approve of his scheme to destroy Cracker County, and uses his new power to save the day.
This film contains examples of:

. - Evil Is Petty: The Devil literally takes candy from a baby. And then gives it alcohol.

- I Know Your True Name: The only way to escape a Deal with the Devil is to guess his true name. It's Bladderick Rasputinstein the Third, Junior.
- Kissing Cousins: Bubba's such a redneck stereotype that he rejects cousins for being too distantly related, wanting a second cousin at the minimum.
- Mistaken for Undead: Bubba and his friends think the Devil has set zombies upon them, so they take their guns and start firing. Unfortunately, they're actually just hippies high on shrooms.
- Named After Somebody Famous: Bubba's middle name is "Beauregard," presumably after Confederate general P.G.T. Beauregard.
- Only in Florida: The Devil's ultimate scheme is to expand Hell to Florida, as a form of franchising.
- Our Werewolves Are Different: These are sapient beings created by deals with dark forces. They don't shapeshift, and are permanently wolf men.
