Julie G Oct 12 Maybe it's the time period or this type of 80s comedy that doesn't hit for some people anymore? All I know is that almost every bad review is missing the point! This movie is a classic- it's so bad it's good. The masterful absurd acting of Paula Prentiss as Mary throughout the entire movie still gets me every single time- how do people not see that?! It's also actually a little scary too. Maybe mixing "naked gun"- esque humor with some horrifying monsters isn't for everyone but it's a nostalgic five star good time for me.

I watched Saturday the 14th at midnight, alone, in total darkness—thinking I was in for a goofy, light-hearted horror spoof. What I got instead... was something far more sinister. From the opening frame, I felt a chill. Not from the movie—but from my soul trying to escape my body. The acting? Unnatural. The dialogue? As if written by a cursed typewriter possessed by a confused dad. The monsters? So grotesque, so surreal, they couldn’t possibly be the work of man. (Seriously. One looked like a cross between a sea sponge and a tax audit.) At first, I tried to laugh. I wanted to laugh. But the deeper I went, the more I felt the oppressive weight of confusion pressing on my chest. Nothing made sense. Time lost meaning. I checked the clock. Only 15 minutes had passed. I was already weeping. The film dragged me through a haunted house of nonsense—fanged creatures, cursed books, inexplicably enthusiastic organ music—and left me somewhere between existential crisis and mild indigestion. When it finally ended, the silence was deafening. I stared at the blank screen, empty. Forever changed. My popcorn had gone untouched. My cat refused to be in the room with me. My TV may now be haunted. I give Saturday the 14th five shrieks out of five. Not because it's scary... but because I screamed the whole time anyway. Do not watch it alone. Do not watch it sober. In fact—just... don’t. Grab your favorite beverage, Sit in your favorite chair, Pop some popcorn and Press Play....Then go take a cold shower.

If you grew up in the 80s you most definitely watched and enjoyed this it was a must see. See more Shawn R @satiable Dec 14 Ya definitely gotta check this out on a Saturday the 14th!
