Review of Weekend at Bernie's (1989) by Martin D — 17 Apr 2010
Weekend at Bernie's is about a dead guy Terry Kiser, whose two employees decide to have fun and pretend that he is alive to party at his house. The two young employees are the smarmy smooth-operator Andrew McCarthy and his best buddy Jonathan Silverman.
Much of the gags include Bernie's lifeless body being dragged about and posed. What's surprising is that much of the gags actually work. Non-necrophiles will get a kick out of this too lol.This film, like many great 1980s comedies, is best when not taken seriously.
