A bit off, but still: You'll find a list of more than 800 films featuring
hillbilly-characters here (Southern Mountaineers Filmography):

For some (very angry but enlightening) background, you should check out
"The Redneck Manifesto; America's Scapegoats: How We Got that Way and Why
We're Not Going to Take It Anymore" by Jim Goad, Simon&Schuster, 1996. It
also has a comprehensive bibliography. (Got Goad's e-mail adress if it's of
any interest).
