Editorial Review:
Broken Lizard is back?and this time the crazy comedy troupe that brought you Super Troopers is taking you on a trip so outrageously fun?it?s murder. Welcome to Coconut Pete?s Pleasure Island, a tropical, tequila-soaked vacation resort where high-spirited fun soon takes a deadly turn?leaving the island?s hilariously inept staff to battle a machete-wielding maniac as they fight to survive another day in paradise. Filled with sidesplitting humor, scary slasher scenes, and plenty of bikini-clad babes, Broken Lizard?s Club Dread is a comedy to die for!
Description of Club Dread (Unrated Extended Edition):
Looking for plenty of sex, violence, and lowbrow comedy? If you are, you could do a lot worse (or is it a lot better?) than to visit Club Dread, a boldly wretched excuse for broad comedy perpetrated by the Broken Lizard troupe--the same guys who brought their potty-mouthed brand of lunacy to bear on 2002's Super Troopers. That alone should serve as ample warning or invitation, depending on your tolerance for way-too-casual sketch comedy, stitched together with an emphasis on big, gross laughs and enough female frontal nudity to give Girls Gone Wild a run for its money. It all takes place on Coconut Pete's Pleasure Island, where Pete (Bill Paxton, slumming it with infectious abandon) holds court while scantily clad vacationers play crazy games (life-size Pac-Man, anyone?) and provide easy prey for a slasher on the loose. Ah, but there's the rub: Is this schizoid movie a comedy or a horror flick? It's both... and neither... and the bloodletting is surprisingly extreme amidst all the poop and fart jokes. Of course, that won't stop Club Dread from finding its audience. We know you're out there…and you know who you are. --Jeff Shannon

2009-10-06 - if your a fan of the other broken lizard movies(super troopers,puddle cruiser,beerfest)you won't be dissappointed hilarious comedy horror movie with a topless jordan ladd worth your money
Good movie, Broken Lizard !!!
2009-09-21 - This movie is better each time I watch it. Club Dread is actually a little scary, I was surprised...but the more I watch it the funnier it gets. Just like all other Broken Lizard movies, this is a movie to BUY and watch many times without ever getting old.
I love this movie!
2009-05-06 - So this is a comedic horror, with the clear emphasis on comedic. And it is comedic, and pretty well done. I tend to hate slap stick and sophomoric humor; this gets pretty close to that edge, but stays just enough off that I can love it. The idea of Coconut Pete as the lesser known version of Jimmy Buffett is great, and his angst at being overshadowed is very funny (son of a son of a..bi**h). The characters are fun and not too over the top (unlike their Beerfest performance - terrible). The filming location is awesome - a tropical beach (which, if my eyes serve, is also the same beach where I Still Known What You Did Last Summer was filmed (mexico?)). This is definitely a guilty pleasure, though.
