Haunted Honeymoon description Gene Wilder's Haunted Honeymoon attempts to re-create the charm of those horror spoofs from the 1940s like Hope and Crosby's My Favorite Brunette. Larry (Wilder) and Vickie (wife Gilda Radner) play radio stars who decide to spend their honeymoon in the spooky old manse where Larry grew up with his Aunt Kate (Dom DeLuise in drag). The setup is a good one and the mostly British supporting cast, including Brazil's Jonathan Pryce, are certainly game. Unfortunately, Wilder elicits more chills--and groans--than chuckles (the dialogue is particularly ghastly). In the end, the results come closer to the George Lucas-penned dud Radioland Murders than to Mel Brooks's brilliant Young Frankenstein (featuring Wilder as the good doctor himself). If the Wizard of Oz-type ending doesn't completely redeem it, Haunted Honeymoon is still entertaining enough and seems positively sophisticated compared to the spoofs of more recent vintage (now that's a scary thought!). --Kathleen C.

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | A Decent comedy/horror of the 80s |
| Again, another film that has play many of time during the young years of HBO. Most of you that grew up during the 80s will remember this film. Now, we hardly see it get played. If you happen to like the comedy of Wilder, Radner and DeLuise, and are big fans of theirs, then you will truly like the film. Recommended to fans of Radner, Wilder, and DeLuise only! | |
