THE MIDNIGHT HOUR (USA 1986)

This movie has all incredients for an average trash-movie. Partly funny, partly boring, often confusing and with bad dialogues and a stupid plot it has all you need for a funny afternoon with friends.
It´s about a group of teenagers that breake into a witchcraft-museum because they want extraordinary Helloween-costumes. They steel the costumes and a big box with old scripts in it.
Because they want to go immediately on a Helloween-party, they put on these costumes on a cemetary. One of them starts to read the old scripts, thereby wakening the dead. After the teens have gone to the party, the dead come out of their graves (the graves explode!). There are all kinds of zombies - liliputans, Werewulfs, blue, white or black Zombies etc.
So again Zombies threaten a small town on Helloween. This would be extremely boring if there wasn´t this nerdy guy (the protagonist) and all this idiotic stuff:
like a zombie-couple that kisses and dances on the party or a final mass-dance in the style of M.Jacksons "Thriller". Oh, and, did you ever heard about a band called "Helloween Brothers" and their number one hit "Ghouls want to have fun"? OMG

TERRORVISION (USA 1986)

This movie is reviewed on this site. It is good fun especially the first third - then it gets more and more boring. I would say after the monster has learned the words "food", "odi", "susi" and "music" one can stop watching it.
The end is absolutely ridiculous.
