Not funny, not clever and not knowledgeable about the genres spoofed


Hugely disappointed. This is Troma-level stuff.

AVOID!

SCTV used to do this kind of thing so much better.

You do realize that the drive-in is named after Lloyd Kaufman, founder of Troma.

Not no, but hell no.

Troma-level????!!!!

Why would you insult Troma by comparing it to high school drama class crap like this? Had any of these people actually seen a drive-in flick before, or were they too busy blowing each other in the back row?

I have nothing against camp (in fact I like a lot of it), but this pile of steaming crap was more like an attempt at making more musical swill than a drive-in exploitation flick.

It is beyond awful. It is not funny or campy.

Agreed. It dragged on too. I was actually bored.

You've just convinced me to see it!

WHOA, HEY

Let's not say things we can't take back. Troma doesn't deserve such a mean-spirited comparison.

I genuinely loved this! I grew up watching Troma and actually thought this was better, not to knock Troma, because I do like some of their movies like the first Toxic Avenger.

I thought each film had a fun ode to different films I can clearly recognize!

It is by far one of my favorties!
