The American Scream

This film is so so slow. However, I will say this, the last 10 mins of it ALMOST makes the film redeem itself. I mean how can you beat a kill sequence intermeshed with a crappy version of the bluegrass song "The Orange Blossom Special". Thats right, you cant beat that folks. So for the first 75 mins, I give it a 0/10, for the last 10 mins, I give it a 10/10, with an average score of 5/10.

i had a hard time following this movie. i rented it b/c i really like pons maar. parts of it were really funny, the baby exploding, for instance, and the cannibal couple eating the baby, but mostly it was just muddled and weird.

A family wins a free vacation to a mountain resort,where the town is strange and its residents downright odd.The kids soon find themselves in deep trouble and have to do a bit of literal growing up in order to survive.The family consists of Father Ben(Pons Maar),his wife Barbara(Jennifer Darling),son Brent(Matthew Borlenghi),daughter Bridgette (Riley Weston)and their two friends Larry and Roxanne((Kevin Kaye and Jeanne Sapienza)."The American Scream" is a frustrating film to watch.It's actually one of the oddest and dullest horror comedies of 80's.The characters are obnoxious and stupid and there are some hokey jokes.I can easily compare "The American Scream" to equally as bad "Troll 2".The character of preacher played by John Kiedis looks like Carl McCoy of Fields of the Nephilim fame.5 stuffed dogs out of 10.A great place to bring your kids indeed!

The 2 worst movie I have ever seen in my life are Troll 2 and this. Everything from the plot, the acting, direction etc is terrible. This is advertised as a horror movie but it is anything but. More like a stupid comedy. you will want to kick yourself for sitting all the way through it. It's about a family so sweet they make you sick and their kids and their kids friends going to a small town for a winter vacation. The people in the town don't like kids too well and apparently only the kids can see this. Do not waste your time on this movie. I can't believe i wasted my time typing out this review for it! Avoid it at all costs!!!!!!

This is easily one of the very worst movies made. It is confusing, unintentionally funny, not funny when it wants to be, and strangely sleazy. Makes absolutely no sense whatsoever! Troll 2 is a masterpiece compared to this trash!
