I was the only living soul who nominated this for the Willies List. I shouldn't've been surprised as the number of votes for horror parodies/comedies was not that high (especially after the list became known as "Flicks That Give You the Willies" and people started voting specifically for scares), but Shaun of the Dead made it, so wah wah wah goes Ed.
Anywho, I created the Top 5 Horror Comedies Willie Bonus Sub-List (I believe is what I called it) specifically to address this issue. And also so I could somehow vote for The Burbs and not feel like an UTTER boob. Just kind of a boob. (Link to my Burbs obsession here and here.)
Bubba Ho-Tep is the kind of movie that you can get almost any film geek to watch just by telling them the pitch: Ossie Davis plays JFK as an old black man. Bruce Campbell plays Elvis as old, fat Elvis. They meet in a nursing home. Then team up to fight a mummy. Do you really need to know anything else?
