May 28, 2010It's amazing the things you'll stop on when you're absent-mindedly surfing the TV. Why I watched more than 5 minutes of this I'll never know. A Jimmy Buffet type musician (Bill Paxton) owns an island resort. All kinds of partying takes place, but then people start dying at the ha... read more

April 26, 2010I really thought this was funny and a lot different than most comedies. It pretty much took the idea of Scooby Doo and Friday the 13th and made it into a fresh product. While it isn't as perfect at capturing priceless moments as Super Troopers, this still had the great characters... read more

February 27, 2009The sophomore installment for the Broken Lizard gang who brought us the hilarious cult hit Super Troopers. The synopsis is a spoof of "who done it" type of mystery thrillers. Chalk full of naked women and drugs, the Broken Lizard gang clearly have a lot of fun making th... read more

February 12, 2008One of my guiltiest of guilty pleasures. I can't remember how many times I've seen this, but it never fails to make me chuckle -- all the way through. Jimmy Buffet, you son-of-a-son-of-a- . . . gun, move over. Coconut Pete has your number.

January 10, 2008Really terrific comedy-horror in a booze-soaked vaction resort with gang from Beerfest. Lots of hilarious funny, plenty of bikini-clad babes, but Jordan Ladd and Brittany Daniel are really hot and physical - WOW! Too bad that's no nude scene for Daniel only, that's what I ... read more

March 30, 2007An almost spoof slasher film, quite funny but it still has some good slasher moments.

December 10, 2006A bad sophmore atempt from Chandrasekar. I tried hard to like it but how could I like a comedy that just isnt that funny.

December 6, 2006It's the movie all the Scary Movie flicks have wanted to be but failed.

Sara Gebhardt, Washington Post
The film still may be too bloody and crass for some, and it's by no means hilarious, but all things considered, Club Dread lives up to expectations, which were never really that high to begin with.

Ruthe Stein, San Francisco Chronicle
Doesn't quite capture the devil-may-care feel of a sex comedy. Full Review

Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
This is the first movie in years to challenge Ed Wood's Plan Nine From Outer Space for the title 'worst movie ever.' Full Review

Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
Most of the movie is just blood and bodies, some of the dead, some of them topless, and none of them interesting. Full Review

Megan Lehmann, New York Post
Unencumbered by logic or narrative cohesion, the freewheeling lunacy of Club Dread sits squarely in the guilty pleasure zone.
February 27, 2004
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
There will be better movies playing in the same theater, even if it is a duplex, but on the other hand there is something to be said for goofiness without apology by broken lizards who just wanna have... Full Review
