Saturday the 14th
Just when you thought it was safe to look at the calendar again.
Directed by Howard R. Cohen
Produced by New World Pictures
A lighthearted horror-comedy spoof that plays with monster-movie tropes through family chaos and absurdist humor rather than genuine scares.
After his family moves to a new house, a young boy discovers a mysterious book that details a curse hanging over the date of Saturday the 14th. Opening the book releases a band of monsters into the house and the family must join together to save themselves and their neighborhood.
