/ stonedgremlinproductions www.thecinemasnob.com / thecinemasnob And the winner of this week's Viewer's Choice episode is this Sherman Hemsley haunted house comedy directed by "Alan Smithee."
The slave torture device is a metaphor for the movie itself, because Sherman financed the movie so heavily he was trapped inside of it while it repeatedly screwed and emasculated him. And him being killed by ghosts who engineer a fatal car explosion is a metaphor for the movie bombing horribly and destroying Sherman financially.
"Hmm...yes, the president of the Confederacy, KING TUT!" God damn that made me laugh, Brad truly has a talent for making awkward, bizarrely unfunny and tasteless comedies seem entertaining.
i don't even think snob would sink that low. you don't get much worse that cosby movies. i'd rather watch las vegas bloodbath 50 times than sit through even one of those.
Anyone else feel like this is a weirdly interesting concept? Not a ghost comedy, but rather, seeing the haunting ghosts perspective while they do the haunting.
Squirrel Gadget unfortunately they don’t seem to parody the titles of the movies that they spoof anymore. In the old days we used to get parody titles like “The Flintbones”, “The Boneheads”, and “Edward Penis Hands”. Nowadays the titles are all “This Ain’t The Flintstones” or “The Coneheads: A Porn Parody”.
I've been a subscriber for years. You are by far my favorite youtuber, hands down. You should have multiple millions of followers. I've probably seen this video a dozen times and it's still hilarious. Thank you for the hours upon hours of entertainment. Next time your in Chicago I'd love to buy you and the wife never ending drinks and an extra large Piece pizza. That won't happen for obvious reasons but still, thanks.
18:44 I can hear her poorly contained giggles, ''I'll go get my seance hat! You're going to Love it! Cher was going to borrow it for a tour, but I couldn't bear to part with it.''
I saw the Smokin' Joe entry in the opening credits, and through the whole movie I kept wondering how the hell he would fit into the story. Now that it's over... I still have no idea.
Oh my god, I watched this at a slumber party when I was 8 or 9! And it spooked me! I’m having memories crash over me. And WTF, I’ve seen a movie that Cinema Snob has covered 🙀
+Victor Von Doom Jr. this movie is basically diet Ghostbusters where it takes all the fun stuff that made Ghostbusters good and replace it with bland comedy
This is just like electing the entire Cubs infield to the All-Star Game. Sometimes you have to take the vote away from the fans for the good of the show.
This is one of those movies I remember sitting through multiple times as a kid, on purpose, without even realizing how bad it was until years later- shows how feeble minded I was as a tot! ....I got better, I swear
26:45 - *Snob: "And if they ever decide to remake this piece of shit, well, I know who the internet will blame for that one!"* You? *Snob: "Damn Right!"*
I've seen some bizarre things,a Croc eating a cow train and panda wearing a tutu with a flamingo on its head dancing. But this is beyond insane. wtf is this movie? I might need therapy now.
I am in the vast minority but I loved this movie. I loved the review of it too. I grew up watching this all the time. I had a huge crush on Sherman Hemsley growing up. This was on TV all the time when I was young and I'd get so happy. I loved it more than Ghostbusters and Gremlins as a kid. It was one of my faves so for nostalgia, it's still something I adore.
Careful what you wish for Snob. GHOST FEVER (2017) already in production with Kevin Hart & a mustached Dwayne Johnson. Bo Derek will pull an Eddie Murphy by playing every other role.
That ending, marvelous. It just brought the biggest smile to my face seeing that in a supposed comedy. And right after that boxing shit-show, too. It totally makes sense that this was an adult comedy at some point. Just considering the year this was made in, there was probably a lot of nudity from those two blonds in the original cut and a lot more dirty jokes. And then someone had the bright idea to make this a family film.
Sheesh, this one looks even harder to stomach than Ghost Dad. At least that thing had the delightfully ridiculous satanic taxi driver and that scene with the telephone.
I'm confused. Everything about this movie screams made for tv but then Hemsley says goddamn it which would've been allowed. What the hell is this thing?
No, no, fear not. The censors could've *easily* edited out that line. Its just they had trouble allowing the torture humor, slave humor, unnecessary boxing scene, and dark ending to pass through censors.
GruntGamerProductions But if it was originally shot for TV he wouldn't have said it in the first place. Also, people were way less sensitive about racial humor back then than the are now. I'm sure that would've sailed right past most people in the 1980's, no prob.
Always loved Liam Neeson in that. Haven't seen it in so long! Though, I probably wouldn't like it much now. According to IMDB, Steve Guttenberg has been in a lot over the years. But it's things I don't watch. Haha!
he's still acting just nothing mainstream. his IMDb is sprinkled with low budget, independent movies and TV movies some of the latest being Sharknado 4 and some kind of lava tarantula movie. the tarantula one is a sequel for a movie from last year... I also loved that movie when I was younger haven't seen it in years.
My 10 or 11 year old self probably would've enjoyed this. Maybe. Never heard of it. Surprised I didn't watch it 2 times per weekend on HBO, ala Saturday the 14th, etc. Thanks Snob!
Are you "sure" this isn't worse than INDEPENDENCE DAY (1983)? I mean... at least that has an exploding Dianne Wiest. Well, I guess if there is one thing we know ghosts can't do, it's direct.
I don't get why everyone seems to hate that movie so much. Yes, it is incredibly dumb, but between the singing heads, the sweet music box song, the incredibly relatable overcoming the fear of spiders scene, the bumbling servants, and Terrance Stamp having a gay old time overacting the shit out of his character, I just don't see why it gets such a bad rap. Plus, it's quite beautiful at times in the lighting and colour themes, and it's a lot of fun imagining every Eddie Murphy scene is actually Donkey from Shrek in another life.
I didn't donate on Patreon, because I don't have an account, and I'm flat fuckin' broke, but I was hopping this movie would win instead of the porno spoof.
@@sorryifoldcomment8596 Actors pretending to play musical instruments hilariously wrong is one of my favourite things to watch for in films. You'd be surprised how often it happens, but I've never seen an example this egregious!
Ahh I know that guy. The first time I got into an internet argument was on one of his videos. I'd been peacefully on the internet for years and just one random comment on some random guy's video got me constant notifications for 2 flippin years afterward. The toxicity on his videos is just off the charts.
Some Random Name Sorry, couldn't tell. I have seen people argue plenty of stupid shit in the comments. Yesterday a guy tried to convince me that aluminum is a man-made metal, and doesn't occur naturally.
They did actually set up the boxing match in Buford and Benny's first scene. Although it was a throwaway line that Benny read in the paper, so I can see how that could slip one's mind when you're distracted by the constant audible thuds resulting from rapid-fire awful gags.
