Python Hyena Club Dread (2004): Dir: Jay Chandrasekhar / Cast: Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Hefferman, Steve Lemme, Bill Paxton, Brittany Daniel: From the creators of Super Troopers and so much better. It takes place on an island paradise yet a mad slasher is on the loose killing everyone via machete. Director Jay Chandrasekhar does a great job presenting a satire of slasher films although the murders are graphic particularly during the violent conclusion where someone is cut in half. Yet much of the humour works thanks to amusing characters who seem to point blame at each other leaving viewers to guess who really is guilty. Asides from directing the film, Chandrasekhar is the tennis player who actually uses tennis balls in an attempt to stop the killer. Kevin Hefferman is new to the island and can give a powerful massage. Steve Lemme is struck with embarrassing sexual secrets but catches the attention of a spring break girl. Bill Paxton as Coconut Pete runs the island entertaining guests with songs he doesn't remember writing. One such song seems to employ clues as to who will be murdered and when. Brittany Daniels plays one of the many hotties in this film. She attempts to hold her sanity and suggests that everyone stick together. The over the top graphic nature of the murders could have been left out otherwise this is a well made shock comedy with clever writing in its satire of a declining genre. Score: 7 / 10

bowmanblue The first thing you need to know about Club Dread is that it is not to be taken seriously. It's basically a comedy, but with horror thrown in. It doesn't so much as lampoon the genre, as adhere to it. Storywise, it's actually your average slasher film. An unknown killer stalks an island full of annoyingly-fit teenagers and knifes them to death. Nothing new there. Nothing new in the whole film really, but that doesn't mean it's not worth watching.It's basically fun. It never tries to be serious and shouldn't be taken as such. If you like slasher films in general, you should like this. The only downside I found (or rather something I felt was a missed opportunity) were the death scenes. The whole film is surprisingly UNgory for a supposed (half) horror film. As the film-makers are also playing to a comedy audience, you'd think they'd be more creative with the (many) death scenes. There's certainly scope for it. However, every death is a simple stabbing or slice - hardly imaginative.But, it's more comedy than horror, so perhaps I'm expecting too much. Basically, as many other reviewers have said, it's basically Froday 13th meets Porkies and I can't really add anything to that.

adi_2002 A group of party peoples arrives by boat on an island also called "Pleasure Island" in order to have fun, drink beer, smoke, getting high and have sex. They all seems to enjoy themselves until some of the teens are chased and killed by a masked man. Now some of them form a team and tries of defend from the killer to get away from the island alive but it hard because they don't have any idea who might be the killer so they can't trust nobody. Will they get away or they will be catch by the mysterious killer? Club Dread it's a horror with funny moment but not quite an comedy. Some of the kills are gory and the scene at the end is overmuch (for the Uncut version). You could watch this one day, not give it too much importance and it will not be a total waste of time.

StaRe Club Dread is a very interesting piece of work, not really too original, exciting, well done, action filled or intelligent... and honestly not even good. Basically it pivots around a bunch of people stuck on an island with a killer, giving it quite the "oh please not another movie like that" feeling. However, they are not just a handful of people on a deserted island, they are the staff of "Pleasure Island" and need to keep their cool while taking care of a load of tourists. The plot is by no means complicated but it stands out just enough and can be quite unpredictable sometimes. Just beware of a very common mistake! Don't give up after the first few minutes, it gets better and better all the way to the end!This movie needs you to fulfill three different criteria before you can truly enjoy its interesting properties to the fullest. I have listed them below, the first being the most important and so on. Number 1; you need to be able to laugh freely and comfortably at silly, odd and stupid things. Number 2; you need to make sure you are not disturbed by "almost well done gore" or attractive women not wearing a whole lot of clothes. Number 3; you need to be observant enough to notice details, and too tired (or possibly drunk) to be upset when these details don't match, instead you need the ability to laugh at it.With these things in mind, my punchline is; This movie is a total piece of crap! Characters, script, effects, dialog, actors and most other stuff too can't be called anything other than crap! However, follow the simple guidelines and force a few friends to watch it with you and you will laugh so hard you will never forget this movie. Hard to tell if the movie was intended to be hilarious or serious, but regardless the intentions behind it... this is a comedy overdose! Total piece of crap but in a Very entertaining way, I give it a 7 out of 10 because months later I still start laughing like a maniac when I think about some of the scenes in the movie.
