Product Description

From Amazon.com

What looks like a standard 1980s holiday-themed slasher movie turns out to be a much more witty venture. A group of college students head out for a weekend of relaxation and April Fools' pranks at an isolated island cottage, catching the very last ferry until Monday morning. A practical joke goes awry, hostess Muffy starts tromping around in frumpy clothes and acting like she's not quite herself, and the bodies start piling up. Don't you just hate it when you're on a completely remote island and the phone goes out? All of this is done, though, with a fairly low gore content and a sly wink at the usual slasher conventions--rather than whodunit, the trick is to figure out what's in good fun and what's real bloodletting. It ain't Citizen Kane, but it's not a bad evening's enjoyment either. --Ali Davis

4.0 out of 5 stars cheesy 80's fun horror movie, Dec 31 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: April Fools Day (VHS Tape)
FROM THE PRODUCER OF FRIDAY THE 13TH 1-5 COMES THIS PRETTY GOOD ENTRY TO 80'S HORROR FILMS. THEY SURE DON'T MAKE MOVIES AS SCARY AS THEY USED TO. THE ACTING IN THIS MOVIE WAS EXCELLENT THE LOCATION WAS PERFECT FOR A HORROR MOVIE AND THE MUSIC WAS SPOOKY. BUY THIS RIGHT AWAY ON VHS OR DVD.

P.S. THE COVER ART ON THE VHS EDITION IS NICER THEN THE ONE ON THE DVD EDITION.

This review is from: April Fool's Day (DVD)
I've seen this movie so many times - it has that classic cheezy 80s feel & a great twist - perfect for get-togethers with friends. It's Scary, Sexy, and FUN! And if you like it, consider checking out "Valley Girl" - another Deborah Foreman classic!!!

i don't know if its my specific paramount dvd version or if its all of paramount dvd versions??? i have read plenty of reviews on this page & not one person has mentioned the BAD audio & that confuses me!! i mean how can nobody else notice it????? its almost as bad as the anchor bay dvd version of MARIO BAVA'S "twitch of the death nerve"(aka"bay of blood") i am so T'D OFF right now!!!! i just got done watching it & i can't believe how hard it was to sit through it !! at regular volume you get this constant buzz & the sound keeps moving up & down i had to keep turning it up but the higher i went the louder the buzz, pretty much to the point where the buzz over powers the sound!!! this SUCKS because I LOVE THIS CLASSIC & i was so exited when i found it on dvd!!!! 5 stars for this great classic slasher flick!!! but 1 star for the HORRID CRUDDDDDDDDDY audio/sound on my dvd version!?!?!?!? p.s. to any of my fellow horror fans out there if there is anyway you can respond to this PLEASE let me know if its just my version!!! im keeping my fingers crossed that it is because then i can just go find another one!!! later on fellow horror fans!!!!!!!!!!!!!
