Show Notes
In 1982, PANDEMONIUM tried to be a horror comedy, and couldn't. Put into production as THURSDAY THE 12th, but then beaten to the gag by Roger Corman's SATURDAY THE 14th, this misbegotten movie lost its way and never quite figured out what to be. In spite of a dozen familiar faces (Tommy Smothers, Carol Kane, Paul Reubens, Eileen Brennan, Eve Arden, Judge Reinhold, Phil Hartman, John Paragon, it just goes on!) most of the comedy falls pretty flat. But every once in a while, PANDEMONIUM serves up something truly strange and interesting, making you wonder what this movie might have been, in an alternate universe where SATURDAY THE 14th never happened.
