An appalling comedy horror, this has a bunch of obnoxious ex-students locked in at their class reunion and stalked by a psychotic killer. The script is so inept, repulsive and agonisingly humour-free that it's hard to believe it was written by the usually dependable John Hughes. The cast, including Animal House's Stephen Furst, wander aimlessly from room to room, while we cross our fingers hoping that the maniac will butcher them all. It's hard to isolate a low point, but the demonic possession gags come close. One of the worst comedies ever made.
An entertainment in which the presentation is better than the material, which is a vague spoof of high school and horror films.
What can be said about this film...? Excellent! From the onset this movie will have you begging for more.

this was dreadful. Very wooden acting, dissapointing, expected so much more from a National Lampoon movie even if it is over 20 years old.
The storyline was really predictive and the characters were dull. Amazed I stayed awake to watch the whole thing!
First Michael Jackson and now John Hughes. For those of us who were still growing up in the 1980s this summer is a rude reminder that we’re all getting older, and faster than we thought. Hughes – who died from a heart-attack last week at the age of 59 – can’t really be compared to Jackson in terms of fame or artistry. Most people probably never saw a picture of him before this week. But don’t underestimate Hughes’ impact on those teenagers who would turn... Read more
