Product Description
What do you get when you combine three of Hollywood's most hysterical talents with a creaky old castle and a werewolf legend? An "amiable kinky blend of high jinks and horror" (The Hollywood Reporter) that'll leave you howling with laughter! Starring Gene Wilder Gilda Radner and Dom DeLuise this "ingenious amusing horror comedy [will] put a smile on your face and keep it there" (Los Angeles Times)!At the mansion of his Great Aunt Kate (DeLuise) Larry Abbot (Wilder) is undergoing a psychological procedure designed to rid him of his irrational phobias by frightening them right out of him! But the jolts and frights may turn out to be the least of his problems when Great Kate names him her sole heir. Suddenly the entire family seems a little too vigorous in participating with his "scare-apy" leading Larry to believe that one of his jealous kin may be murderous and that another may be werewolverous!System Requirements:Starring: Gene Wilder Gilda Radner Dom DeLuise Jonathan Pryce Paul L.

Gene Wilder's Haunted Honeymoon attempts to re-create the charm of those horror spoofs from the 1940s like Hope and Crosby's My Favorite Brunette. Larry (Wilder) and Vickie (wife Gilda Radner) play radio stars who decide to spend their honeymoon in the spooky old manse where Larry grew up with his Aunt Kate (Dom DeLuise in drag). The setup is a good one and the mostly British supporting cast, including Brazil's Jonathan Pryce, are certainly game. Unfortunately, Wilder elicits more chills--and groans--than chuckles (the dialogue is particularly ghastly). In the end, the results come closer to the George Lucas-penned dud Radioland Murders than to Mel Brooks's brilliant Young Frankenstein (featuring Wilder as the good doctor himself). If the Wizard of Oz-type ending doesn't completely redeem it, Haunted Honeymoon is still entertaining enough and seems positively sophisticated compared to the spoofs of more recent vintage (now that's a scary thought!). --Kathleen C. Fennessy

 Not As Good As Young Frankenstein December 10, 2008
Gene Wilder is very funny,so is Dom Deluise,and The late,great Gilda Radner,but this film wastes their talents.Gene wrote this film,and it was Supposed to be A spoof of old time Bob Hope/Jack Benny Haunted House Pictures.There are A few funny moments,and A decent supporting cast including Johnathan Pryce as Gene's cousin,and Paul Smith(Bluto in Popeye the Movie)as Gene's psychiatrist Uncle. What really hurts The film,is that it,doesn't make sense at times.A shame really;Gene,Gilda,And Dom,in A movie together should have been hilarious.This is not nearly as funny as Gene's other horror spoof classic"Young Frankenstein",I recommend it,over this diappointing comedy misfire.
 Hauntingly Hillarious! May 26, 2008

The plot was not bad but the dialog could have used a lot more work. It had potential as a really funny movie. You have the actors, the script, the set and lots of spooky films to make parodies of.
A Decent comedy/horror of the 80s May 20, 2007
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
Again, another film that has play many of time during the young years of HBO. Most of you that grew up during the 80s will remember this film. Now, we hardly see it get played. If you happen to like the comedy of Wilder, Radner and DeLuise, and are big fans of theirs, then you will truly like the film. Recommended to fans of Radner, Wilder, and DeLuise only!
