Looking for plenty of sex, violence, and lowbrow comedy? If you are, you could do a lot worse (or is it a lot better?) than to visit Club Dread, a boldly wretched excuse for broad comedy perpetrated by the Broken Lizard troupe--the same guys who brought their potty-mouthed brand of lunacy to bear on 2002's Super Troopers. That alone should serve as ample warning or invitation, depending on your tolerance for way-too-casual sketch comedy, stitched together with an emphasis on big, gross laughs and enough female frontal nudity to give Girls Gone Wild a run for its money. It all takes place on Coconut Pete's Pleasure Island, where Pete (Bill Paxton, slumming it with infectious abandon) holds court while scantily clad vacationers play crazy games (life-size Pac-Man,...

I liked this movie. It helps if you have a clue who Jimmy Buffett is or some of the jokes aren't that funny. The characters are great also - like the security guard! And the fun police rings familiar if you have ever been to a resort with an activities director. The movie is a horror spoof that actually is scary in parts. In being true to the genre there is a lot of pointless nudity. I have watched this movie about 10 times already. It is too hard to compare this to super troopers so don't even try. Plus pay attention to the words in the coconut pete songs like the line "mouth tastes like pinata turd". The Buffett style songs are funny as hell. This also comes off as a murder mystery as you are trying to find out who is killing all of the guests.

Super Troopers The fine art of handing out a freeway speeding ticket gets a deviously funny twist in this smart-alecky farce written and performed by the comedy troop Broken Lizard (consisting of Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Steve Lemme, Paul Soter, and Erik Stolhanske). These pranksters in patrol cars (led by their long-suffering commander Brian Cox) are little more than overgrown frat boys in a campus rivalry with the brawling Vermont bullies of the local police force, and they know how to have fun on the highway patrol. This skit-like collection of comic moments clumps from one scene to another like a variety show, but the gags are more hit than miss, thanks largely to terrific ensemble work and inspired motorist mind games. With a nod to such 1970s comedies as...

Super Troopers (2002), is the rare comedy that has managed to sneak into my burgeoning DVD collection -- I generally prefer drama, action, horror, and sci-fi movies. My initial reason for purchasing this disc was because Brian Cox had a small supporting role, and I'm very pleased with his performance here.
Usually I'd just launch into the plot, but I'd like to introduce you to these funny characters; Farva (Kevin Heffernan), Foster (Paul Soter), Mac (Steve Lemme), Rabbit (Erik Stolhanske), and Ramathorn (Jay Chandrasekhar) are all bumbling Vermont State Troopers at imminent risk of losing their beloved station house to discretionary budget cuts.
Perhaps this group of actors sounds unfamiliar? They're part of the Broken Lizard comedy troupe. They're the same... More Info About This DVD Actor(s): Kevin Heffernan DVD Release Date: Released the 06 August 2002 Usually ships in 24 hours
