Cassandra Peterson brings her long running tv hostess shtick to the big screen in this funny horror comedy. This won't win any awards but, it will make you laugh. Many character actors pop up in this tale of a gal with a dream of opening a stage show being named in the will of an Aunt who was just like her.The evil Uncle scenes near the end slow the film down a bit but, Elvira's got some great lines in this fish out of water film. Pop the popcorn and enjoy!

I love this movie! I have since the first time I saw it back in the, well it's been a while. This movie is fun for everyone. This is Elvira at her best! I recomend this movie to everyone. It's a great Halloween party flick or just an anyday flick! The music video at the end will have you first laughing and then ponding how did she do that!

So terrific! The absolute best part is the dance sequence at the end. This movie is one laugh after another. It is somewhat raunchy, but nothing too inappropriate for children. Elvira uses campy movie tricks and special effects to make the funniest movie ever. Anyone with an advanced sense of humor will appreciate it.
