this is a spoof of other movies of that era,some horror,some not.i found it silly more than anything,and at times it denigrates into near stupidity.i was able to watch the whole movie,though it is quite slow at times.it does have some mildly amusing moments,coupled with some intentionally(or not)ultra cheap special effects,and some really bizarre looking monsters,some even stupid looking.this movie definitely inspired other movies down the road,some good,some bad. there isn't really anything resembling acting in the movie,except for Richard Benjamin who is quite good as the unflappable(or clueless)father who doesn't bat an eye,no matter what bizarre happenings are occurring right under his nose.he is quite amusing at times.otherwise,there is a lot of screaming and running around.For me,"Saturday the 14th" is a 5/10
