HauntedWeen

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.

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!

Haunted-ween is a better than average slasher about a group of college kids having a party in a haunted house to raise money. The acting is pretty bad, for some reason casting directors never cast actual southern people to play southern characters and it shows in this flick. But it does have some good slashings, a couple of really cool ones. The end is pretty dumb, but nonetheless I'd say check it out.

This movie is a cult classic among film students at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green. It's not a good movie, yet it is soooooo entertaining! Especially when you know good ol' BG like I do. Or even better yet, you know a lot of the crew members...like I do.

You really can't get this movie outside of Kentucky (you might be able to find it online somewhere), but I suggest watching it after you've watched Halloween.

It's just good dirty fun. Enjoy it with your friends and a good bit of alcohol. :)

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.
