Plot



A con artist acts as a preacher to run his moonshine distillery in a small town in the Deep South and clashes with a number of locals and a federal agent bent on shutting his operation down.

Production



'This Stuff'll Kill Ya!' was filmed in Checotah and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Critical reception



Writing for DVD Talk, critic David Cornelius described the film as "unyielding creepiness," and wrote that "[i]t also doesn't help that Allen's performance - which permeates almost every frame - is grating to no end, while the story absentmindedly stumbles around with no clear focus." Film review site Film Threat describes the film as "long, dull and boring" with "stilted dialogue and static direction." Critic Jeffrey Kauffman described the film as an "oddball entry," "patently silly," and "Uneven at best and hilariously inept at worst (in the Lewis tradition)."
