Saturday the 14th Strikes Back
Eddie and his family have just inherited a spooky wreck of a house. What they do not know about the house is that it was built over an evil passage way, but they are soon to discover the wacky evil it releases.
Why it matters
A campy, low-budget riff on slasher tropes that leans hard into goofy, self-aware comedy over genuine scares.
- A cult curiosity for fans of 80s horror spoofs that double as midnight movie fodder.
- Leaning on slapstick and absurdity rather than tension, it’s more parody than fright—expect cheap laughs, not chills.
- Practical effects and set pieces that feel more like a community theater production than a Bottin showcase, but charmingly earnest.
- Ideal for viewers who savor the schlockier side of horror’s direct-to-video era or want to see how slasher clichés get playfully subverted.
