Club Dread

Club Dread

A vacation to die for.

Directed by Jay Chandrasekhar

Produced by Coconut Pete Productions, Fox Searchlight Pictures

2004104 min5.2 / 10

A comedic slasher spoof that prioritizes irreverent humor and absurdity over genuine scares, treating serial murder as a punchline in a hedonistic resort setting.

When a serial killer interrupts the fun at the swanky Coconut Pete's Coconut Beach Resort -- a hedonistic island paradise for swingers --- it's up to the club's staff to stop the violence ... or at least hide it!
