Based on the Bram Stoker Award nominee short story by cult author Joe R. Lansdale, Bubba Ho-tep tells the "true" story of what really did become of Elvis Presley. We find Elvis (Bruce Campbell) as an elderly resident in an East Texas rest home, who switched identities with an Elvis impersonator years before his "death", then missed his chance to switch back. Elvis teams up with Jack (Ossie Davis), a fellow nursing home resident who thinks that he is actually President John F. Kennedy, and the two valiant old codgers sally forth to battle an evil Egyptian entity who has chosen their long-term care facility as his happy hunting grounds.
Leave your thoughts about Bubba Ho-tep.
| Blunt ReviewEmily BluntBubba Ho-tep is an instant cult classic - and why shouldn't it be? It's got all the elements one looks for... |
| Georgia StraightSteve NewtonWho would have thought that such a far-out B-movie premise could result in this sharply directed, wonderfully acted, and laugh-out-loud-funny tale of courage and redemption? |
| eFilmCritic.comRob GonsalvesDon Coscarelli still doesn't know how to make cookie-cutter genre films. Let's hope he never learns how. |
| eFilmCritic.comErik ChildressBubba Ho-Tep is a wonderful film with a bravura lead performance by Bruce Campbell that doesn't deserve to leave the building until everyone is aware of it. |
| Film ThreatPete Vonder HaarI loved this film; from the opening “Ben-Hur” nod to the hieroglyph subtitles, it's simultaneously hilarious and poignant, with great performances. |
| Milwaukee Journal SentinelTim HansenThere's an astonishing amount of good, solid acting. |
| Film ScoutsJason GorberElvis is in a geriatric care centre with JFK (who's black) and he's got to kick some ancient Mummy ass. What else is there to say? |
| Dallas Morning NewsCharles EalyBubba Ho-tep may sound bizarre, but it's a lot of fun. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonBeloved cult star Bruce Campbell has rarely been as good as he is here. |
| Seattle TimesMark RahnerThis independent production is so preposterously creative and fun that it makes Hollywood's sausagelike output seem even staler in contrast. |
