Classic Thursday : Weekend At Bernie's (1989) 7/10

Starring : Andrew McCarthy, Jonathan Silverman, Catherine Mary Stewart, Terry Kiser
Director : Ted Kotcheff
Running Time : 95 mins

As it's a bank holiday tomorrow, today will stand in for my classic review!

Richard (Silverman) and Larry (McCarthy) discover that someone has been embezzling money from their company. When they inform their boss, Bernie Lomax (Kiser), he invites then to his beach house for a weekend of fun and leisure and women as a thank you. But once they arrive, they find he's been killed! So that they don't get the blame, the duo set about trying to convince everyone that Bernie is still alive...

This film is so silly, you just have to love it. The sequel is incredibly poor, but this still stands on its own as one of the last great 80s comedies!
