Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Headstone Manor saw the disappearance of 18 souls in 18 grisly ways, which the locals have variously put down to some dodgy monkey business, visitors from outer space, or fast food excess. Ten years on, strong radiation readings bring the one-legged Dr Mandeville (Everett) to do some paranormal research, and the carnage begins. The spoofings of so many genre films in a barrage of visual gags quickly becomes predictable; only Sheila Steafel's Carrie sketch is done with any imagination.
