| User ReviewTony PThe best spoof of all time. It might have been made by below par brothers but it did have Jaws and one of the Dirty Dozen. |
| User ReviewConnor SOne of the silliest funny movies of all time. love it. "you're all doomed." |
| User ReviewDave MB-movie horror spoofs at their finest and silliest. |
| User ReviewKen MThis has to be one of the funniest movies ever made |
| User Reviewmatt nthis is one of if not the funniest movie ive ever seen & still makes me laugh to this day & ive watched it hundreds of times easily. |
| User ReviewC. LSilly Hudson Brothers spoof of horror movies. Rented it on a whim and have now seen it so many times that I can speak along with the movie. Sadly, I'm one of few, so mumbling: "What difference does it make?" rarely results in anyone understanding. |
| User ReviewWhatsamattaOne of the most underrated comedies of the 80's |
| User ReviewBob MA little known 80's gem. If you don't see it, you're doomed. |
| User ReviewChristopher BRemember the Hudson Brothers? That wacky comedy team that follows in the footsteps of the Marx Bros? Don't worry, no on does. Still, I loved it when I was a kid, especially "The Hop" scene. I would really love to see this one again. |
| User ReviewRoss BMost people I know hate this movie, but I just can't stop laughing long enough to chastise them. Yes there are some slow parts, I know, but I'm a sucker for ultra corny comedy and this movie has that. The parody of JAWS is hilarious and there are plenty of quotes spread thoughout the movie. Take it for what it is, a ridiculous horror parody, and enjoy> |
