Club Dread is a strange, strange movie...

It was better than Super Troopers. It was definitely funnier. The jokes and gags were better. Plus, as a side benefit, it is also a horror film parody.
The revelation of the killer's identity ... well him telling his story... funny.... who the killer was... incredibly f'n disappointing, lame etc... this movie doesn't know if it wants to be a parody or serious... and it seems to jump back and forth a few times...

I think this movie was just ahead of it's time. Or something. In 10 years, people will be fawning all over it. It'll be a cult classic.
And hell yes, Daniel was veddy veddy nice.

Brittany Daniel made the movie.
The whole Coconut Pete concept/charachter was great. Son of a son of a bitch Jimmy Buffett.
Not a great movie, but funny enough that I didn't feel like I wasted 90 minutes.

I thought it was a hilarious comedy, one of the best horror/slasher parodies in years. Big improvement over Super Troopers, Broken Lizard's last movie.
And Bill Paxton's (not Pullman) send-up of Jimmy Buffet is terrific. He and Brittany Daniel added a lot to the movie. I remember thinking that if she died, so did half my interest in the flick... Luckily the filmmakers were aware of that angle.

All the fake accents made that movie for me. It's really quotable too.
I can't help but smile everytime Juan says "Peen-Na-Lope".

"Well you just shit in the one apple pie that knows how ta shit back."
"I came out with Pina-Coladaburg seven years before Margaritaville was even on the map!" :lol
The movie wouldn't have been the same without Bill Paxton. God I love that guy.

Similar to a certain zombie flic that came out last year, one sorely looked over by the masses. The same masses who flocked to that piece of shit remake of DotD. Anyway, in spite of this zombie flic's schizophrenic take on the genre, it's still the best horror movie of 2004.

Club Dread was eh-ok. Decent slasher comedy.
Super Troopers is brilliant slapstick. I thought that the members of Broken Lizard were cast *much* better in Super Troopers, and it really shows in comparison to Club Dread, where I felt the characters didn't match the actors as well. That being said, preconceptions from Super Troopers might have played a part in that.

Juan: Yu and Hank are dead!
Coconut Pete: ...What did we do?
Juan: No! Yu and Hank are fucking dead!
Coconut Pete: Is that a threat?
Too bad they cut the rest of that line, something about a hairless pigboy.
Penelope: I go to Oral Roberts.
Juan Castillo: Oral Roberts? Is that like Anal Johnson? Because I have done that a few times. Or was it Dirty Sanchez? Yes. It was that.
still think Super Troopers was better than Club Dread. I can't wait to see what they do with the Dukes of Hazzard movie (the whole BL team is writing the script).

ok, Burt and Willie are good casting choices but Luke and Bo are just wrong.

:lol I swear if I ever meet a girl named Penelope I'm gonna call her "pee na lope" everytime I see her.
The movie had it's moments but much like American Wedding it sucked save for one character. Putman was insanely funny compared to anyone else. The combination of indian man + dreadlocks + english accent = hilarity. He had some great lines (especially when coupled with the accent) and the scene in the bedroom still gets me. Everything from the tennis ball last resort to his discovery of the killers identity. :lol

Juan and Putman were both funny as hell. Even Putman's name is funny. I can't say it out loud without breaking into a stupid grin.
