American Gothic is a 1988 Horror written by Burt Wetanson and Michael Vines and directed by John Hough. It stars Rod Steiger, Yvonne DeCarlo and Michael J. Pollard.

Plot

After they’re forced to land their plane on a seemingly abandoned island, a group of 20-somethings discover a small home owned by elderly, puritanical bible thumpers Ma and Pa. They soon discover that Ma and Pa have three middle-aged children (Fannie, Woody and Teddy) who behave like adolescents. One by one, each of the friends does something that the family deems bad, so they’re slaughtered, leaving Cynthia, who was recently released from a mental hospital, as the final girl.

Tagline: The family that slays together stays together.

The film's UK video release title was "Hide and Shriek".
