HauntedWeen

I don't really like most horror films from the 1990s. I feel that the 1990s was the worst decade for horror films, with tons upon tons of horror films that were just well were not very good, and this movie well, it's not well acted but at least you can tell the people who were making it had a good time doing so. it's silly, yes, but it was also a rather enjoyable romp. It is certainly better then a whole shitload of horror films that were made between 1990 - 1999, and frankly that's good enough for me.

A slight recommendation, rent or buy a copy if you can find it cheap at a local video store. It's not going to be your new favorite horror film but it's a good way to spend 90 minutes.

By far the worst horror movie I have ever seen. It has the potential of a bad Pauly Shore movie with the filmmaking of Ernest Goes to School. The music sounds like something I would hear playing Duke Nukem on the computer. The story is very cheesy and driven by God knows what, the acting is even more cheesy. I though Meateater was bad, but this one defiantly takes the cake. At least Meateater lacked only acting, this movie lacks everything. I understand where the story came from, but is so stupid I can't see why someone actually put it on paper. Let's bash the cinematography shall we. There is no color in this movie. I love the old horror movie film quality (not necessarily vintage type film), but in order to set a mood you must have that quality, whether it's in lighting, filters, gels, etc. This movie lacked all of that and was so bad I could barely sit through the whole thing. That's why I kept my hand on the fast forward button. I have seen bad horror movies, but they are usually bad because of acting, or they have unrealistic situations, or poorly driven story line. I don't know what drives a person to make crap like this, but I really hope the pathetic actors choose to leave this off their resumes.

This forgotten slasher is obviously very low budget but is in my opinion a lot of fun, and they did much with very little. Had this been released about a decade earlier, it probably would have had a much bigger following, Many early horror films received a boost from the new video market of the early 80s. Distributers were pulling out anything horror to satisfy the demand. HauntedWeen would have filled that demand nicely I think.

There is not much plot, there's not a lot of backstory, there is no huge twist at the end. Many of the early scenes are more like a bad Animal House rip-off than a horror film, but I think there was a genuine attempt at character development, and while the acting isn't great, it works. Another nice inclusion are lots of boobies, and not just the plastic kind on a size zero. A scene with the frat on a pontoon showcases a seriously thick girl who isn't ashamed of anything. Shes really got the junk in he trunk something rarely seen in any film. I liked this film a lot more than I was expecting. It's nothing ground breaking, or thought provoking, but it scratches that Halloween itch for me. To sum it up boobs, blood and Burber House. Check it out!

I found this movie in 2001 at a local video store's "for sale rack" not knowing what it was, I've thoroughly enjoyed it every few years since. It was also fun to see it was filmed at Western University in Ky and I live across the state in Louisville. It's full of boob action and light on the blood which is nice because I'm usually No into slasher. There's a lot of corny things in it that I think of from time to to time. The silly theme song in it is terrible but it's going to get stuck in your head forever. There's a lot of stuff to laugh at watching it now. The poofy hair and ignorant lines that the girls have to say. Also funny, how all the people that live in this town at the haunted house must be sadomasochist "like kill her!!! Yeahh! I know there was a documentary about the movie too and I look forward to watching it.

I remember watching this movie many years ago with my cousins, my aunt, and her boyfriend. The latter, both more than 10 years older than me, were students at Western Kentucky University and had some friends who were in the movie, which is why we watched it in the first place. It made for a pleasant popcorn movie night, nothing too scary or overly risqué for a bunch of preteens. To answer a comment from another IMDb reviewer, it's not a wonder that not everyone in the movie was southern. The cast members were WKU students, who come from all over the country. I remember the movie as basically an excuse to show co-ed breasts and well-toned calf muscles (those hills around the campus are good for something!). But if you're into a bit of eye candy and an innocuous, generic horror plot, it's not the worst thing in the world you could watch. Honestly, I was surprised to find this movie listed on IMDb at all, since the budget was about $20.
