Preacherman(Movie, 1971)

Preacherman is a 1971 American comedy film written, directed, and starring Albert T. Viola. The film revolves around a backwoods con artist posing as a country preacher, who, during a sojourn in a small North Carolina town, alternately misleads a local landowner to take advantage of his daughter, but also helps him sell moonshine to get revenge on a rival. Initially released mostly to theatres in the American south by small distributor Variety Films, the modestly-budgeted film grossed over $5 million, spawning a sequel, Preacherman Meets Widderwoman, in 1973. It was later widely distributed on home video by Troma Entertainment. ()
