From 1986, Spookies is filled with cheesy makeup, horrible puppetry, and stupid characters, but it's so endearingly silly that I couldn't help but enjoy the nonsense.
A group of adults, not even teenagers, but full grown adults, are looking for a place to party. The old abandoned house in the middle of a grave yard looks like as good a place as any. Sure, why not? Bad news for them though, because some old demon or some shit is living here, waiting to collect souls to help him revive his bride. Something like that.
Among the party goers is Duke, an Italian guy who even the producers of Jersey Shore would probably consider too over the top.
Once inside the house, the movie lets loose an abundance of silly creatures on it's unsuspecting guests. An Asian spider lady, flatulent floor monsters, various animatronic goblins, and some elf dude dressed like the MC at Catch A Rising Star.
A monstrously silly camp fest, Creepies reminded me of the kind of movie a 9 year old me would have loved, and as such I enjoyed it immensely, ymmv though.
