Viewing Notes

Boss move by the boss of all bosses of horror hosts to program her own movie to kick off her 40th anniversary special on Shudder.

This might be a strange thing to note but given the type of humor this movie would probably be a lot more entertaining if I were 10 years old. However, the funniest jokes (to old me, now) are the ones inappropriate for a 10yo, the double entendre stuff.

Crazy to think that Tim Burton was originally attached to direct and that Vincent Price was going to be her evil uncle.
