Really Surprised!
Perfect cast and a good story
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Man! those were the 80's slashers... "Evil Laugh" is among other movies that tried to grab a piece of the gold mine of the 80's slashers. Sadly, this movie is terrible in all aspects. The dialog, the music (the music please!), and the acting are horrible. But there's something about this movie that makes it enjoyable. I really regret for not buying the VHS when I could.Anyways, you've seen the plot many times before. A group of (guess what?) teenagers stay in a house at night and fall victims of a (guess what?) maniac. Don't pay attention to the box cover, it has little to do with the movie.Still the gore makes the movie watchable. It tries to be brutal and shocking but only generates laughs. Although the sub-plot concerning a child molestor is dark, the movie follows a series of non sense events that have zero creepiness.The ending will please you if you enjoy ULTRA CHEESY scenes. I won't spoil it but expect something like "April Fool's Day". Do yourself a favor and watch it if you loved the 80's slashers.Also, this movie has one of the most disturbing scenes on any slasher flick. When a couple is making love (or about to) the dorky guy, hiding under the bed, starts to rub the man's butt and seems to enjoy it! When the couple find out about the dorky guy they just start to laugh. That was one scene I want to erase from my memory.
Evil Laugh is a poor attempt at trying to jump on the 80's slasher band wagon. The gore factor is OK, but the cheese, oh my God the 80's cheese! The music is borderline unbearable, and the dancing doesn't help either. It does make you laugh though, as does some of the acting. The chest rubbing joke was cracking me up. Not the worst I've seen, and you might find it somewhat entertaining, but not because of scares. I dunno where the hooded skull character on the cover comes from either. The killer looks more like a 5 foot tall burglar wearing some type of wrestling head gear. This is the second "Lucky 13" flick I've seen, and they're not exactly winning me over.
A group of medical students escape away to a run down house for the weekend. What they are unaware of is that Martin is there to join them in the celebration. This slasher flick is nothing out of the ordinary. The title of the film is implied by can you guess? Yes, a laugh, and it's a rather humorous one if anything. Maybe Larry (Dr. Giggles) Drake took some notes on this one. There is nothing really special here. Oh wait, ya, Martin did use a microwave to cash in one of the house guests, that was rather interesting to see. I wouldn't praise this picture, but I also wouldn't totally bash it. There are plenty of other better slasher flicks out there, but this one does stand out on its own. Only recommended if you can deal with 80's cheese. 6/10
Yeah, it's dreadfully bad, but in it's infinite badness is an enjoyable film, which one can watch with friends on a friday night and laugh your ass off. The dialogue is ridiculous, the acting is horrible, the death scenes are hilarious (one guys gets his head cooked in a microwave) and everything else is just lazy. I can't think of a funnier movie.
