Entertaining teen horror spoof with some amusing, almost likeable characters and some purposely fake-looking gore that just makes you laugh at how cheesy it looks. I would definitely watch this movie again.... Full review

The jokes are mostly clever and the special effects are amusing.....The dialog may lack wit, but it still is undeniably campy entertainment.....This is Rodman Flender's most enjoyable film, which really isn't saying much.....An enjoyable comedy horror, but you have to be in the mood for campy fun.....Not a great movie, but does deserve some credit for taking a reused material.... ...
