Bought this for 4.99 at the local buy/sell store.
Pretty good. I stopped about 40 min into and finished it a day later. It was funny tho. Loved the bad effects.
April Fools Day. Got this one for 6.99. Extremely predictable ending but the rest of the movie is pretty good.

I don't recall having seen Reptillicus(but I bet I've seen about 20 minutes of it).
April Fools Day: Pretty cool flick up until that retarded ending. I was digging that whole thing with the evil twin then they throw it right out the window for a bunch of nonsense. I don't consider myself hard to please but come on, even I have my limitations!

I loved April Fools Day.
I put next to "Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things."

The Fact that anyone who knows the title to the movie can predict the ending is what p**sed me off, and I was talking to my friends and I was like "Yeah the ending was a bust though" and right away one of them said "So it all was just an april fools joke eh?"

I bought my copy as a cheap dub from some guy on E-Bay for about $15. He puts a copy up every once in a while, so if you're lucky you can get it for even less. It isn't even subtitled, but somehow that makes the thing even more precious!

Reptillicus is a classic, we need more Scandinavian monsters. Reptillicus flying though?, I'll have to check to see if this trader I know has a copy.

I liked April Fool's Day and I guess I'm one of the few people who didn't guess the ending ahead of time. I know some people hate the ending, but without it, it's just another slasher film. I like that it wasn't just a total ripoff.

I have the ORION "Digitally Remastered" VHS copy. There is a song in it and a romantic subplot. I'm not too sure about if he flys or not i'll have to watch it again soon.
What I do know is that the film was originally shot with danish actors talking in english. When they were going to release it in the US all the actors voices sounded funny because of the accents. They were forced to re-dub over the english-with-accents so that it sounded right.

Yes, that is true for the American version. They shot both versions simultaneously--the Danish version in Danish, and the American version for which the actors learned their lines in English, which was ultimately dubbed over do to the comical "sing-song" quality of their voices.
