1 Out of 5 Stars
Wow, Leslie Nielsen and Keenan Thompson, fire your agents. Writer/director Bo Zenga, retire. Everyone else involved in this, hang your head. Stan Helsing
is a spoof that can't take an easy target (monster movies and characters that have been around long enough to be self-parodies) and make even a mildly funny movie. I got only one mild chuckle in the whole 90 minutes of this film, and it involved a kids' hockey team. The rest of "Stan Helsing" is a wretchedly unfunny movie that misses almost every pitch it makes. Top it off with a bad Michael Jackson joke and an inexplicable "appearance" by Barack Obama and you start to wonder how this DVD got past the discussion stage. Plenty of aimless, mean-spirited sex jokes, a nasty homophobic streak, lack of developed ideas...and the only monster that stoner/video store clerk Stan Helsing should have killed off was this script.
