The ORIGINAL Horror Spoof Movie May 5, 2008
Tropicalwolf (Ohio, USA)

So much better than all the schlock crap that is being peddled as "spoof" today. This is a truly funny movie. It will go down in history as setting a standard that has yet to be reached in its genre. Classic horror comedy at its finest!
Things are bad on Friday the 13th April 14, 2007

Things get really bad on Saturday the 14th
Everyone seams to be interested in an old house that recently came on the market. What is it that they are interested in? Turns out there is a book of evil. Who ever controls the book controls the world. Mean while as the different parties are looking for the book. Little Billy has inadvertently open the book to release many evil beings on the world (mostly they hang around the house.)
Will the book of evil fall into the wrong hands?
Will obnoxious Aunt Lucille meet a fur coat?
Why must Van Helsing (Severn Darden) move in for the bats to move out?
The big question is who did the dishes?
The film has just about every monster movie cliché. Two seen that will have you in stitches are when the kit tries to tell his father that there is a monster in his room and the father of course denies it. The monster is right behind the father. The second scene is the shark fin in the bath tub shacking with frustration as the girl inadvertent disengages her foot from the tub.
The film is packed with many well-known actors. O.K. maybe not by name but surly by sight. Original Music by Parmer Fuller added to the spooky feel.

I saw this movie 20 years ago and thought it was hilarious. It drags in parts and gets a little wierd at the end but if you've watched the older horror classics, e.g. Halloween, Carrie, you'll appreciate the jokes and humor. This movie was the prequel to movies like Scream and Scary movie.
over the top cheesy,bizarre August 28, 2005

this one is actually a guilty pleasure of mine and certainly not for everyone. you really have to be into 80s horror comedy cheese to even slightly appreciate what this film offers. its kinda a horror spoof intended to scare children a bit while being a bizarre comedy for adults. you realize right from the beginning that this movie is not intended to rival The exorcist or win academy awards. just a fun movie for fans of 80s cheese. I find the fathers sarcastic wit and negligence hysterical. The scene at the end when van helsig goes against the vampires for the bookof evil is classic horror comedy. totally over the top, cheesy , and nonsensical all the through. The daughters bath scene is mandatory and she looks quite nice semi nude as well. Nice shots of her legs and cute feet hanging out of bath tub. good movie for hardcore cheese lovers only.

Okay Saturday the 14th is not the funniest comedy movie ever made but I still liked it. It's just a cute enjoyable movie with some cute humor that satires horror movies and it has a good cast, Richard Benjamin and Paula Prentiss play a husband and wife and are married in real life and they were good in the movie as was Kari Michaelsen who is probaly best known as playing Katie, the eldest daughter in the sitcom Give Me A Break and underrated character actor Jeffrey Tambor was good too. Go buy or rent this movie on DVD or video!
