Curiosidades

Pandemonium is a 1982 American parody slasher film. It was directed by Alfred Sole and features an ensemble cast including Tom Smothers, Eileen Brennan, Phil Hartman, Tab Hunter, Judge Reinhold, Carol Kane, David Lander, Eve Arden, and Paul Reubens.

Production

Alfred Sole had initially been set to direct a horror film for 20th Century Fox titled Ghouls. Its plot revolved around suspended animation. However, following the box office disappointment of Terror Train as well as a New York Times article on "The Death of Horror Films," Fox lost interest in the film and attempts to revive it at other studios were met with disinterest.

After Ghouls fell apart, producers Doug Chapin and Barry Krost instead offered Sole Thursday the 12th which was an original screenplay written by Jaime Klein and Richard Whitley after the two screened an entry of Friday the 13th and felt it was ridiculous enough to make for a parody. Over time the slasher parody elements were downplayed as the film instead became more of a broad comedy.

The film had initially been set up at Paramount Pictures, but Paramount refused to allow Chapin and Krost their choice of director and the two instead brought the film to United Artists. The film had initially been set to release around Halloween 1981, but was pushed back to a spring release date the following year.
