Club Dread

I see a lot of Super Trooper fans that hate this movie. Personally I enjoyed this movie far more than Super Troopers. I don't understand why anyone would try to compare the two movies though. They are two totally different style movies. Kevin Heffernan as Lars & Brittany Daniel as Jenny were both hilarious together. I personally thought it quite hilarious that a spoof of slasher flicks was actually a better slasher flick than most serious slasher flicks while being hilarious at the same time. It seems to me that the reason most of the critical people don't like this movie is that they took it seriously. That is the problem.

Club Dread was one of those in-between films. It wasn't bad, although it had bad parts. But it wasn't really good, although it had good parts. I had never heard of Broken Lizard or Jay Chandrasekhar, nor had I seen Super Troopers. So maybe I just don't get it. There was a lot of opportunity for nudity passed on, and I think that might have been part of the wry, just-under-the-radar humor that this was so full of. It has been called a horror movie spoof, but that's not completely accurate. It is a full-fledged slasher film, but they are obviously having a lot of fun with it. But not all of that fun making and thinking up this film translates into fun watching it. But I will give them credit for putting something out that isn't the same as everything else out there. Kudos for Brittany Daniel who made this easy on the eyes, too. I'd say check it out, but just don't have unrealistic expectations.

i went to see Broken Lizard's Super Troopers, with some friends, they are huge Super Troopers and i guarantee you they thought that this would exactly like Super Troopers... Well It's not... but it's just as funny

Bill Paxton is hilarous as Coconut Pete Jay Chandrasekhar is funny as Putnam

but i will admit it has to see Heffernen (Farva) as the Star

Steve Lemme is funny Soter is pretty good in the movie Erik Stolhanske is funny and convincing.. after u see u'll know why

BTW there is A LOT OF BOOBS!!! which never hurts a movie

also Brittany Daniel is extremely Hot in this

I give it a 7.75/10

Please I will warn you, if u go to the Theater thinking that this is Super Troopers, you will leave dissapointed

This is just like those slap stick shows that were out awhile back. I watched it with a few friends and we all liked it and laughed. Yes it was a bit different from super troopers, but why create a copy??? I think most that gave it a lousy report, expected it to be like their first movie. But this is a change, something different, they wanted to keep it us guessing. I had seen a interview with two of the members from and they said they are expanding their movie creating horizens, they don't want to be predictable.

Its very adult orientated with humor thats for sure. Just make sure the lil ones are out of the room when you watch it

Club dread is a cinematic treat. Fans of super troopers will understand the clever brand of comedy applied in this film. The accents aren't supposed to be realistic, the situations aren't supposed to be suspenseful, and most of all the acting isn't supposed to be oscar worthy. It's a joke people. It's a movie made by a comedy troop co-starring Bill Paxton. They're not exactly shooting for the stars. What they are trying to do is make you laugh. Let down your guard and admit that you like unnecessary nudity, brutal murders, and fake accents. If you didn't like super troopers you probably won't like this movie but on the same token, if you didn't like super troopers you're an uptight loser with no sense of humor. This movie is flat out funny when taken for what it is, so please do so. If you're looking for a life changing dramatic experience go see The Passion of The Christ but if you want to have a good time laughing at stuff you know is funny, even if you won't admit it, see this film. Smoke some, drink some, or go sober, but have a good time. Peace.
