Okay, I will freely admit that I laughed my ass off at Broken Lizard's last project movie, Super Troopers. Its the whacked out story of some Vermont State Police and how they choose to deal with crime and the games they play with the local stonies.
So it was with some anticipation that we rented their next movie, Club Dread, thinking that it would, at the least, have its moments.
Sadly its best moment was when the credits started running. The movie attempts to be both comedy and slasher horror flick while serving up ample eye candy at every turn. You'd think it was a recipe for success but really the only good thing in this movie is Brittany Daniel, a wickedly hot body hottie.
The movie, in a single word, sucked. In four words, it sucked donkey nuts. Why? Well it was attempting to be slapstick and then attempting to be high brow humor and never seemed to stick with one kind of humor making. And the gratuitous gore from the killing took alot away from any fun factor, I mean, how funny is it seeing people hacked to death with a machete? Bill Paxton as Coconut Pete is pretty good although I kept having Alien flashbacks. Really, the only reason to watch the movie is watch Brittany Daniel prance around in like twenty different outfits.
Next up in the movie queue: The Last Samurai. Which begs the question, why is the last samurai Iowa farm boy looking Tom Cruise?
