    This movie might make you mad

    I don't like some of this movie but it made me laugh a bunch. I don't like making fun of the president or Arnold Swarzenegger but it was funny. Some of it might make you mad but I thought maybe they were trying to... I liked the scenes with the vampire that sounds like Christopher Walken. The ending was really weird. I hope they make more movies like this one because its really different from the stuff in theaters. Most movies wouldn't allow stuff like this one does. After I watched it once I watched it again with my little brother and he laughed a lot. I saw things I didn't get the first time and it was cool. Some of my friends from school want to see it now. I want to work on movies when I graduate but not small ones like this.

    This Movie is Outrageous

    This movie is really funny and I've never seen anything like it. A friend of mine let me borrow it a couple of weeks ago and I haven't given it back yet! There's lots of jokes and some of them are a little obvious but the movie is so fun to watch and there's so many of them I had to watch it a few times to catch them all. There's one scene that I can't believe is in the movie (you'll know which one) at all. There's a whole series of scenes using clips from Nosferatu that had us choking. Since I'm a film student at first I was upset when I heard that the people making this film were using clips from classic movies but after watching it my opinion changed 100%. I may even try it.

    excruciatingly unfunny

    While I do greatly admire The Golem, Nosferatu, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and Night of the Living Dead, I wasn't troubled by the idea of a new film edited from them. I should have been!

    There are simply no laughs in this tedious in-joke. Things your stoner friends might find hilarious aren't going to be even mildly amusing to someone who isn't a member of your circle and isn't high.

    Other films such as Arise! The SubGenius Video and Tribulation 99: Alien Anomalies Under America make more interesting use of video sampling. Other films also make better use of the technique of comic dubbing, such as Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Terror (which really *wasn't* all that funny), or Woody's Allen's What's Up, Tiger Lily?, which the filmmakers of this reference on their commentary track.
