Transylmania Spoofs Dracula

There's never a dearth of vampire movies. They just keep coming out and it's likely it's never going to end. Since the old-fashioned Christopher Lee movies, viewers have become harder and harder to please and the younger generation are always looking for something new. There's not much viewers can do about the classic tale of Dracula, so what filmmakers do is present it in a fresh light and in a different genre. In Transylmania, it's another comedy that sort of follows the footsteps of Mel Brooks's Dead and Loving It starring Leslie Neilsen.

Transylmania takes a group of college kids (it's usually teenagers, you know) into a school semester for an exposure trip to Romania. The picture-perfect holiday suddenly turns less rosy as the darkly hilarious presence of an undead vampire reveals itself. Usually, if the movie is a serious horror picture, the youngsters would be picked off one by one (especially those who "misbehave") until only a handful remain alive. In Transylmania, it's never going to be serious because it's a comedy from start to finish.

You don't need to see any critic's film review of this one. You just need to watch it and try to enjoy it. Guys would like to see this one just for Jennifer Lyons (top) who plays Lynn, the same name given to her in her role in Dorm Daze. The girl in leather (at left) is Musetta Vander who starred in the Hamm Stroker's Suck My Blood "episode" of the Son of the Beach tv series and Mortal Kombat.

Good Luck Chuck Poster Simply Crawls on Your Skin

Here's another Good Luck Chuck movie poster. It's a spoof of that famous Rolling Stone magazine cover of John Lennon and Yoko Ono. You probably already know this one. It's the comedy movie about a guy who loses a girl to the next guy that comes. It makes fun of the male ego and I don't see how this poster can be any more humiliating to a guy---even more so when you find out that it's been Photoshopped. Yes, Dane Cook didn't really wrap himself around Jessica Alba naked. That would have upped her talent fee sky-high! Yeah, good luck Chuck!

Delta Farce Spoofs War Movies

These are the heroic men of Delta Farce, the movie that will end all war movies because it makes fun of them all. That makes for good entertainment, actually and eases the tension spawned by what's happening in the real world. In this movie, three military misfits bound for Iraq end up somewhere in Mexico instead where they become unlikely heroes to a small village being harassed by hostiles.
