agreed. expected much more from mickey rose (BANANAS, TTMAR). thinking about it: WACKO, HYSTERICAL, CREATURE WASN'T NICE, SATURDAY THE 14TH -- none of them seemed to work. i'm trying to remember if what made PANDEMONIUM marginally better was all down to the cast... might break that one back out for a refresher.
I think part of the problem with these parodies is that when serious movies turn out poorly they're usually funnier (not to mention more earnest and endearing) than a forced comedy spoof.
