I just watched this one for the first time and fail to understand the hatred for it. While you could definitely argue about the technical aspects of the film such as editing and ADR work and could note some of the jokes that come across as pretty outdated, it was still an entertaining film. Some people have also complained about a boxing match that appears out of nowhere and it makes me think that either this was a second idea Hemsley had for another film or they just needed a reason to win some quick cash to resolve the eviction subplot of the movie. Either way, who cares because Avalos is hilarious in it. When I heard than Hemsley financed the film it made me think perhaps he and Avalos were going to try to do a new set of Abbott and Costello like pictures but with a slightly more updated adult theme where they play different characters each time but remain in familiar roles. They both look like they are having fun and giving it their all and I wish we could have seen more from the pair. Having vampires, zombies, cemeteries and haunted houses makes a perfect backdrop for that later Abbott/Costello horror comedy formula that worked so well. Overall it is far from perfect, but if you like either lead actor, I think you'll enjoy this film.
