A campy self-aware satire of the B-Movie horror genre. A must watch for fans of deliberately terrible movies!

So very stupid but quite entertaining. Highly recommend watching with a group of friends.

So dumb so silly but never wears out it's welcome. Fun just for its absolute ridiculousness.

A definite classic; cinema satire at it's finest. Of course, that also means some parts of the movie are excessive, but still a good laugh

Kitsch and cliche in all the ways you would expect from B-movie throwbacks.

Generic style of comedy for that era. Not very entertaining. Feel free to skip.

I knew tomatoes were evil. Great movie, obviously don't take it too serious, just stay for a laugh. It's silly and dumb, but great fun!

It fits very nicely into the "So bad it's good" category. It's ridiculously stupid and hilarious.
