Georgia P @RT70958088 Oct 8, 2026 Actually a great story line and keeps you guessing until the end. Proper naughties spoof but great kills See more Jason H @RT50328122 Jul 13, 2026 Fans of '80s slasher movies (like me!) will love this. See more Chris S @Janomi Jul 4, 2026 Broken Lizard's Club Dread has a fun premise, mixing a slasher mystery with the group's signature offbeat comedy. The tropical island setting gives the film its own identity, and the combination of murders, goofy humor, and an ongoing whodunit keeps the story entertaining even when the jokes don't always land. Bill Paxton steals the movie as Coconut Pete, fully embracing the role with ridiculous songs, endless enthusiasm, and an over-the-top performance that's easily the film's biggest highlight. The Broken Lizard cast has its usual chemistry, and a handful of jokes are genuinely hilarious. Like many sketch-style comedies, the humor is hit-or-miss, and some gags go on far longer than they should. The horror elements also aren't scary enough for slasher fans, while the mystery often takes a back seat to improvised comedy. It's an amusing concept that never quite reaches its full potential.

See more Tom F @RT41162282 Oct 10, 2025 I think anyone giving this movie a bad review really just doesn't get it. One of the funniest movies I've ever seen. See more Jens B @Jens97 Aug 19, 2025 The title fits perfectly: Watching "Club Dread" is a dreadful chore. Yes, humor is subjective, but apart from a few visual gags, nothing here really clicked. And after a quite amusing opening, virtually nothing happens on the horror and parody levels either. To give an example: The film's running gag is that an Indian man (Jay Chandrasekhar) has dreadlocks and speaks perfect Oxford English. Wow. And that's how all the 'jokes' turn out: They have a nice idea, but nothing happens. To make matters worse, the film runs for two hours during which not much happens. Broken Lizard comes across as a group of aging college kids who see themselves as frivolous jokers, but their gags couldn't even knock my grandma off her feet. Everyone in front of and behind the camera probably had the best time, but that doesn't translate to the audience at all. Conclusion: boring, annoying, a lot of wasted potential – skip!
