Odd horror comedy has a rich man cutting his family out in favor of seven random strangers. Everyone must live in a house for a month, leaving only for 48 hours if there is an emergency. The family is annoyed and seek to drive out or kill the interlopers.
The family is played by straight actors while the interlopers are played by comedians and the resulting mix of styles doesn’t always work. Part of the problem is that the straight scenes seem to exist simply to set up the comedy bits. While I have had the DVD for years I never sat down until recently to watch it- and I was disappointed since the spooky cover to the disc didn’t clue me in to the “laughfest” contained their in.
A miss
