Los Angeles Times by Kevin Thomas
While undeniably silly and violent in a cartoon-like manner, is by and large a hilarious skewering of the clichés of teen pix.

On Halloween night, big-time nerd Warren attends a spookhouse in a small Texas town. But is the haunted house as harmless as it seems, or has a psychotic mental patient found a new stomping ground?

Film.com by Ernest Hardy
It's very funny and - at times - even witty in a crude, drunken frat-boy-with-an-epiphany kind of way.
San Francisco Examiner by Wesley Morris
Deadly funny.
San Francisco Chronicle by Bob Graham
The scary thing about this spoof of '90s teen horror movies is how funny it is.
New York Daily News by Jami Bernard
The jokes are wild, raunchy, surreal and dead-on.
Entertainment Weekly by Lisa Schwarzbaum
The whole thing wobbles, like the garish, trashy, sexy shoes the young folks are wearing this summer on their way (in droves) to movie theaters, intent on abandoning themselves to pleasurable mindlessness.
Chicago Sun-Times by Roger Ebert
Is it funny? Yes, it is.
Variety by Joe Leydon
Manages an impressively huge score in the hit-or-miss gag ratio.
Chicago Reader by Lisa Alspector
Political incorrectness, gross-out humor, references for their own sake, and some real wit are distributed over the 85 minutes with an unusually consistent sense of timing and proportion, and the tone is just right.
Dallas Observer by Luke Y. Thompson
Actually quite amusing, thanks mainly to a script that keeps the gags flying so fast that even though so many of them are bad, they're quickly followed by something new, and occasionally something good.
