American Burger is one of the most ridiculously absurd movies of recent history. It’s also ridiculously awesome. The title alone hints quite clearly at what the plot is, but if you don’t get it, this is not a film about cooking per se.

In the film, a bus load of American students, all jocks, cheerleaders and nerds, are on a culture trip in Europe when they stumble upon a mysterious Hamburger stand in the deep European woods, selling 100% American Burgers. You can probably guess what the secret ingredient is.

These poor kids (and teachers) find out first hand when they arrive at the American Burger factory for a tour. Not long after their arrival they meet a strange butcher/chef also known as the Demented Chef (Fredrik Hiller), who seems to be in charge of the place. After a few theatrics, possible Tourettes, and sizing them all up, he advises them that they will be collected shortly. Just then, they are ambushed by hoards of men in white uniforms who systematically slaughter the group one by one - and the real fun begins.

In the same vein as horror comedy classics such as Eating Raoul or Blood Diner, this film simmers in its ridiculousness and celebrates every minute of it.
