An incisive, half-animated satire of racism in America is sure to have more than a few moments that invoke more laughs than outrage.


  • The very first line of the film?
    Black Man: Fuck you.
  • The county sheriff is not too happy to find that the attractive blonde his deputy is slobbering on is his daughter. He shoots his deputy and gets stabbed in the chest in the span of three seconds.
  • Simple Savior's less-than-dignified funeral, where his obesity requires repeated attempts to keep his body below ground.
  • This exchange:
    Preacher: Well what sort of sermon do you want me preachin'?
    Samson: The blues.
  • Preacher Fox doesn't believe in killing white people on Sunday because it's the Lord's day.
    Fox: I guess killing crackers is cool any day.
  • One of Simple Savior's men shoves a photo of his leader right in Preacher Fox's face so he knows who to go with in the afterlife.
    "I've been preachin' down south for nigh-on thirty years and I ain't never heard of no black Jesus!"
  • Savior strutting around and scooting around on his ass during his speech. It comes across as less of a revolutionary call to action and more of a bawdy live show.
  • Preacher Fox's rambling, nonsensical sermons always leave B'rer Bear in stitches.
    Fox: You got the ocean liner...with the pee-hole binder!
    Bear: Hey Preacher...
    Fox: Yeah?
    Bear: Why don't you shut up?
    Fox: Because I've got an electric mouth.
  • Miss America shoots a Black Panther militant with her crotch.
    "She got the clap!"
  • "I'm tired of trying to integrate, segregate and masturbate!"
  • Bear's Pre Ass Kicking One Liner after Rabbit gets hit upside the head by the barkeep.
  • While Fox is escorting a woman home from the bar, he's briefly seen copping a feel.
  • Br'er Bear getting dragged to the altar by his manhood. After he says his vows, Fox pulls a trap door beneath them, dropping the couple into their nuptial bed.
    Fox: Tomorrow, I'll divorce ya both!
  • After the climax of the animated storyline, it cuts back to the narrator, Pappy, laughing his ass off. Only problem is that they're still sitting against the outside of the prison wall and it's now daylight. Randy is less than impressed.
    Randy: The fuck you laughing at? We're dead.
