Unfunny and has no point to it

Posted : 1 year, 8 months ago on 16 August 2022 04:41

As far as spoof movies go, Stan Helsing is not as abysmal as Disaster Movie, Epic Movie, Meet the Spartans and 2001:A Space Travesty, but it is a long way from being Airplane!, Young Frankenstein, Galaxy Quest and Loaded Weapon 1 either. As a spoof movie, it fails. It is unfunny and quite frankly pointless as well.

The production values are cheap. The camera work itself is reminiscent of direct-to-video fodder, while the sets are cheap and the costumes are little more than fancy-dress. The soundtrack is poor and doesn't fit with the tone of the movie. The comedy doesn't work at all either, the script is absolutely awful with stale laughs, the spoofs are irrelevant and superfluous and any slapstick is painfully juvenile.

The story is almost non-existent, and any scene that tries to tell even a thread of a story ends up being predictable and pointless. There isn't a single likable character either, all of them are caricatures and clichรฉs, the direction is sloppy and the pace is rushed. The acting is terrible, the female leads are beautiful but can't act and how Leslie Nielson was dragged into this I shall never know.

Overall, a lame and unfunny spoof movie and best avoided. 2/10 Bethany Cox

Stan Helsing review

Posted : 12 years, 10 months ago on 15 July 2011 04:44

The fact that this garbage has a 19% is a mystery to me. How can anyone be entertained by this movie. Nothing was funny at all and if you thought this was funny then good for you, seriously though there was nothing funny every joke fell flat. The next thing is the horrible acting holy crap none of the performances were funny or remotely good. Whoever wrote the story must of been on something because there was no story at all it's just a bunch of people running from Freddy, Jason, Chucky, Pinhead, Michael Myers, and Leatherface. That's pretty much the whole movie right there. This is a pointless, dumb movie that's not even funny at all and pure torture to sit through. Not even Leslie Nielsen was funny! What is more sad is this was pretty much one of his last movies too. 0/5 stars for this pile of crap! Do not watch it avoid it at all costs and if you do watch it I wish you the best of luck.
