My Fav. Comedy Movie From The 80's


I love this movie and I just remembered about it again, I hadnt seen it since the 90's but if I find it at Wal-Mart Im gonna buy it but until then Im gonna rent it. Who else loves this movie?

Oh my God, I totally agree. This is such an underrated movie. I think it sits right up next to "Caddy Shack" and "Vacation" for amazing 80's comedies. I wish they'd put out a comedy now with the same campy 80's satire as Weekend at Bernie's

Certainly on my Top 5 of all-time flicks...I was lucky enough to see it at the theatre...Twice!!

It's a very funny movie. Long time since I've seen it, though. I also recommend "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" and "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventures".

This is definitely one of my favorite comedies of the 80s. I always enjoy it whenever I watch it. It never gets old. It's hilarious

I hear you, this was way underrated. How nobody figured out that he was dead cracked me up. Plus i forgot how Silverman at the time wanted to be Chevy Chase so bad that he could hardly stand it, it was interesting seeing him try to channel him through out the film but there was a alot of fun elements to this movie that make it still worth watching today.

It's not my favourite, but it's way up there.
