Haunted Honeymoon (1986)

Haunted Honeymoon (1986)

This week on Shat the Movies, we're getting spooky with Haunted Honeymoon (1986)! Join us for a hilarious look at this dark comedy starring Gene Wilder and Gilda Radner, where a newlywed couple finds themselves trapped in a spooky mansion filled with eccentric characters. Expect plenty of laughs, wacky moments, and a fun mix of mystery and comedy. If you're in the mood for a quirky, light-hearted romp, this is the episode for you!

Plot Summary
In the 1986 horror-comedy Haunted Honeymoon, Gene Wilder directs and stars alongside Gilda Radner and Dom DeLuise in a spooky screwball romp that blends classic Hollywood horror vibes with over-the-top farce. Wilder plays Larry Abbot, a popular radio drama actor with a case of the nerves, who travels to his family's eerie estate to marry his co-star and fiancée, Vickie Pearle (Radner). But what should be a romantic weekend quickly descends into madness when a series of bizarre, supernatural events threaten to derail their nuptials—and Larry's sanity.

Set in a gothic mansion dripping with cobwebs, thunderstorms, and secret passages, the film follows Larry as he reunites with his delightfully kooky extended family. Dom DeLuise steals scenes in drag as the dramatic Aunt Kate, whose flair for the theatrical rivals anything Larry ever performed on the radio. As lightning flashes and bodies begin to pile up, it becomes clear that someone—or something—wants Larry dead before he can say "I do."

Haunted Honeymoon lovingly parodies old Universal monster movies while leaning heavily on slapstick and vaudeville-style humor. It's a strange cocktail of horror, comedy, and camp, buoyed by the real-life chemistry of Wilder and Radner (in what would be her final film role before her untimely death). The jokes may not all land, but the film's heart and atmosphere remain charming.

Join our podcast review as we revisit this offbeat cult favorite, discuss its place in 80s horror-comedy, and debate whether it's a forgotten gem or a creaky clunker.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)

Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)

If you've seen "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," you remember every scene. If you've never seen it, you probably still know the quotes, the sets, the characters. This movie distilled everything '80s into a tight, fun, stylish package with a little bit of heart, to boot. But Ferris might not be the clever charmer you thought he was. Memories are funny like that.

The Thing (1982)

The Thing (1982)

Do you like totally gross monsters, psychological thrillers, cute dogs and sexy Kurt Russells? If so, you'll love "The Thing." This John Carpenter classic stands the test of time, despite some glaring plot holes. Never before have Americans so smart done so many stupid things in so little time.

Starship Troopers (1997)

Starship Troopers (1997)

Paul Verhoeven's "Starship Troopers" mixes fun, smarts, action, sex and satire into a star-studded sci-fi package. But a lot of people mistook it for cheeseball macho fluff. Let's relive the terrifying Arachnids, quotable one-liners, Nazi-influenced propaganda pieces and -- of course -- the infamous co-ed shower scene. All hands on deck for Starship Troopers.

Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

Our mission is to answer "Were the movies we loved when growing up really that good?" Indiana Jones and The Raiders of The Lost Ark isn't as good as we remembered: It's better. If you're sick of hearing us complain how other '80s movies fell short of the mark, this is the episode for you. We'll discuss how Harrison Ford was perfect for the Indiana Jones role, Karen Allen stole our hearts as Marion, the action scenes thrilled us, and Steven Spielberg's direction tickled our brains. This movie is downright perfect.

Batman (1989)

Batman (1989)

Sometimes, a podcast episode comes along and ruins your entire childhood. This recap of Tim Burton's 1989 "Batman" is that episode. Give us an hour, and we'll convince you Michael Keaton was a ridiculous Dark Knight, Jack Nicholson was an unoriginal Joker, and journalists really aren't bad. On the bright side, Prince did put together a stellar soundtrack, and Kim Basinger is undeniably at the top of her game.

Fight Club (1999)

Aliens (1986)

Aliens (1986)

"Aliens" How did James Cameron make a move this good in 1986? Like, seriously, it's impossibly good. Sigourney Weaver is the perfect warrior woman when such a thing didn't exist in film. The story makes sense. The space Marines are badass. Even Bill Paxton's overacting is endearing. On the eve of "Alien: Covenant," let's bow at the altar of the greatest Installment of the Alien franchise.

GoldenEye (1995)

GoldenEye (1995)

"Goldeneye" gave us a new James Bond in Pierce Brosnan and type of villain with Alan Cumming's Boris The Hacker. But the 1995 blockbuster missed a Golden opportunity to reinvent a franchise that was long overdue for some growing up. Sure, there were highlights: a sadistically sexy Famke Janssen as Xenia Onatopp, another Sean Bean death and a cameo by Minnie Driver. However, the improbable stunts, goofy gadgets, sexism, misogyny were too much for this movie to overcome. At least there was the video game. Man, that was a fun game.
