It’s the last night for the Kaufman Drive-In and a quartet of rare horror and exploitation movies are on the bill. Directed and written by Adam Rifkin, Adam Green, Tim Sullivan and Joe Lynch, Chillerama is an ode to a bygone era where you could pile all of your friends into a car and catch a bunch of movies cheaper than you can probably watch a single movie now.
I am not the biggest fan of horror-comedies, because so few of them get it right in my eyes. And yes, horror and humor can go wonderfully together, but it’s a very delicate balance. This movie however is more of a lowbrow comedy with a lot of body fluids thrown around… a lot. Anthology movies are always a hard sell, and Chillerama doesn’t do the genre any major favors.
The film’s opening is in black and white.

Who knew? The only change on the cast was the role of Paul's roommate Clyde, which is being taken over by Wes Whitworth.
