Today's Pick: Club Dread (2004)
Now, I know what some of you must be thinking right now: "The guys that made Super Troopers and Beerfest never made a horror movie!" Well, you'd be half-right. While Club Dread is never really going for the scares, it still follows the slasher template extremely closely, but decides to play the material for laughs instead of screams. While some would jump at the chance to call it a "spoof", it really isn't. It's actually one of the better slasher films made in the last few years and it just happens to be incredibly funny as well.
