Review of Saturday the 14th (1981) by Michael J — 13 Jul 2012
What a totally dumb, self-conscious, low-budget, cheesy, hilarious movie! I seriously couldn't figure out how many stars to give it, because the movie itself is awful, but I laughed all the way through it. It wouldn't have been half as funny if the special effects had looked like anything but a bunch of kids' dads wearing rented costumes and trying to freak out the kids on Halloween. That said, when I was like 11 years old, the eyeballs in the coffee cup TOTALLY freaked me out.
Three stars because it really is an awful movie. No less because it's awfully FUNNY.
