I'll probably be in the minority here, but my love for Club Dread knows no bounds and will never die. "Cuz it's goddamn fashion show Wendsday!":lol:

April Fool's Day is quality product from a time in Slasher history that is just hard to beat with me. I am all about the 80s slashers. I love Club Dread too, but it really isn't close.

April Fool's Day is a fun trip. Club Dread, however, can lick my left nut.

[Katatonia]

April Fool's Day!

I didn't quite like Club Dread the first time around, but I did recently buy the Unrated DVD for a couple bucks. I liked it a little bit more on the second viewing.

i liked both but went with club dread

I don't often do this, but I am voting for April Fool's Day without having seen Club Dread, mainly because of my love for the movie. If Club Dread is better than it, I will come back here and change my vote verbally, but until then? April Fool's Day for me. :)

April Fool's Day by a mile, Club Dread sucked!!

[Cujo108]

Club Dread is pure comedy gold, yet it still manages to have a solid slasher film backbone despite it's comical nature. Throw in Bill Paxton and Jordan Ladd, and you've got a delightful blend worthy of Piña Coladaburg. It has my vote.

Man I loved Supertroopers!!!!!!!!!

But gee they blew it with Club Dread.

Weird. I hated Supertroopers and loved Club Dread.

In fact, I'm voting for Club Dread.

Afd.

Oh man, I thought April Fool's Day was terrible! A sub-par 80s slasher (and I love 80s slashers!) completely undone by its hokey ending. Ugh. Great box art, though.

Club Dread was the lesser of the two evils.

[DrHerbertWest]

I agree with the ending of April Fool's Day but I still liked it.

[evildeadfan123]

Have to go with April Fool's Day. Love the 80s slasher movies.

Weird. I hated Supertroopers and loved Club Dread.

I wouldn't go so far as to say I hate ST, but it just doesn't make me laugh like CD does and I just don't get how so many say it's the best Broken Lizard and CD sucks compared to it.:confused:

Now Beerfest was some good funny shit. I think CD would still get my vote over it, but it was way better than ST as well IMO.

[satans-sadists]

I will stick with April Fool's Day, but yes, the ending was so lame!

[Peter Vincent]

April Fools Day was good, but Club Dread was WAY as far as production and a better mix of comedy & horror! Plus lots of boobies!!!!

C'mon guys, where's the Dread love?
