This film is superb fun, and has plenty of really good laughs as well as brilliant scenes with zombies. It's a very inventive film that lifts the horror-comedy movie to a level that hasn't been seen for a long time.

This is a really enjoyable bit of nonsense that I'd recommend to anyone. Great stuff.

Whereas Monty Python veered between inspired, lunatic genius and utter folly, this falls into the latter camp and doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same breath. Overrated crap, and as comparable in wit to the Python's probable low point, "The Meaning Of Life". Execrable.

I watched this at an early age and I still love it now and sing along to the songs as much as I ever did! With a geeky Rick Moranis and a scary Steve Martin, this film doesn't fail to please.
Although it looks like a kids film younger children might be a bit worried by the man-eating plant . . .however my kids love it ( little gore-hunters that they are!) Its bright colours and cheesy songs are the perfect antidote to a boring sunday afternoon!!!

"Teeth" is the story of a young woman named Dawn who finds that she has a pair of teeth in the most unexpected place.

I didn't think I'd like this film but surprisingly I did. It's definitely one not to be taken seriously and is not your standard run-of-the-mill horror. The characters are all very over the top but it does fit well with the film's style. There are enough laugh-out-loud funny moments as well as many cringe-worthy gory scenes (especially for the guys) so both horror and comedy fans should enjoy this.

A recommended rent rather than buy as I can't imagine you'd watch it more than once.

After quite a few disappointing movie rentals, and being none too impressed by the more recent monster/action films to grace our screens, I decided to try out a classic.

My interest was initially perked up by the fact Kiefer Sutherland was in it. Being a bit of a fan, and liking the premise of the film, I decided to buy the double boxset of the film (it works out cheaper - even if the 2nd one is a bit naff in comparison) and I must say it's one of the best films I have seen in ages!

The story goes thus. Michael and Sam move with their mum to Santa Carla, California, after what seems like a slightly messy divorce. They settle in quickly, Sam befriending two (if not slightly odd) comic book store teens, and Michael befriending agang ... Read More:

Ah, Scotland where the free roam, Private Cooper (Kevin Kidd) and his squad of misfits, including the brilliant Spoon set out on a training exercise in the remote highlands but after a SAS trooper is found mauled, the group begin a desperate last stand in a old house against a very hungry pack of werewolves.

The mix of humour and horror make the film a must for horror and comedy fans alike.

I was first introduced to this film as a child and have recently rediscovered it at age 23. I still love it. Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy are so hilarious as the evil Sanderson sisters and the musical numbers are fab. I agree there should be a soundtrack.

Definately one to watch, kids will love it, I put it on for my younger brother and he loved it. The only thing that creeped him out was the talking cat, think Salem from Sabrina the Teenage Witch. This cat is Sarcastic, dry and ultmately hilarious.

Give it a go people. Bette Midler is ace.

If you hate horror films watch this one. There's nothing to be afried in Scary movie. From mickey of Scream to Saw, Charlie's angles to the ring, every film has a suprice. The chartacters are finny and scared stifless. To me David Houser makes a superb job. And if you are afried of laughing don't watch this. Scary movie is a comedy horror that you watch agaon and again and if you liked Sean and Marylon Willains in White Chicks you love Scary movie one, two, three and finally four.

There are plenty of customer reviews of this superb film already - wonderful acting by all the cast; great directing and a deft adaptation, though it takes liberties with Updike's novel. An absolute classic which is great fun to watch again and again.

My gripe, here, is with the print of the Warner Home Video DVD. Poor picture quality, particularly in the first half hour, is a huge disappointment. And the sound is not that good, either. The age of the film is no excuse. I watched, the day before, an immaculate and sparkling print of the Bette Davis classic NOW VOYAGER, so if a 1940s movie can look that good, Warners should have done better with this 1987 film.

This happens time and again with a good many DVDs. Often the original film frame turns ... Read More:
