jadzia92 Released in 1998, this spoof on The Godfather featured Barbara Crampton.While it was a delight to see Barbara anywhere, The Godson is pretty terrible. Barbara however was pretty goofy as her character here and that was enjoyable to see.Also featuring Lisa London (H.O.T.S.) and Fabiana Udenio. Both gorgeous and I love them very much just like Barbara.Fabiana had been in Bride of Re-Animator in which the bride was Barbara's Fraternity Vacation co-star Kathleen Kinmont & Barbara had been in the first Re-Animator movie.When Barbara and Kathleen did their infamous scene of taking off their bikinis and becoming very naked in Fraternity Vacation, Roger Ebert in his review of Fraternity Vacation wrote the implication that they were behaving like hookers but in Fraternity Vacation itself it was never stated explicitly that they were members of the oldest profession.In The Godson the Barbara character is stated explicity to be a prostitute but disappointingly is not naked in this movie.Quite a contrast of Barbara being naked in Fraternity Vacation and an implication by at least one reviewer Roger Ebert that she was a hooker and in The Godson stated explicitly that she was a prostitute but was not naked in this movie at all!It goes without saying that I definitely prefer Barbara in Fraternity Vacation than in The Godson.

xxxloroxxxx This is one of the worst films ever made. It ranks up there with the Killer Tomatoes movies. It's absolutely unwatchable for anyone who uses more than 0.1% of his/her brain. It's really, really hard for me to decide what's worst about it: the story, the dialog, the acting, the editing... How some other users here found it funny and even had the guts to recommend watching it is beyond belief unless they hate the rest of us and want to put us thru the same awful torture they underwent. I'm dumbfounded by how Mr. Hoge could possibly find financing to get this wreck shot. If I had read this script beforehand, I would have paid good money to ensure the flick was never made. Maybe that's how he found the financing!!! :)

RichN36 OK here's the deal Late Saturday Night went to the Video Store all the New Movies were Rented or I have Seen it and didn't like it. So I head to the Middle of the Store where the .50 movies are and I take my best shot and go for the Direct to Video Movies or some of the Oldies but Goodies. Its Kind of like Mystery Movie of the Week. Here was this Movie on the Bottom Shelf called "The Godson" being that I am on a Rediscovery of "The Godfather" I picked it up and wasn't hopping for Much just something to kill a Saturday Night. The Plus it did have Dom Deloise and Roddney Dangerfield. I thought it would be fun to watch Comic Masters from the Hey Day of the Johnny Carson Tonight Show years.What I ended up Watching was a Take off of The Godfather and all the bad Gangster Movies of the 80's and 90's a lot of the Jokes were really bad but then some of them were dead on drop down funny. By the middle of the Movie I stoped what I was doing and actually paid attention to the Movie and had a few good Laughs. I liked the Sides to the audiences that started to take place out of the Blue halfway through the Movie. Which was my Favorite Part I am a Sucker for the breaking the third wall on the stage or Screen.OK it could of been a lot better Maybe play it straight and not go for the Low humor that the Movie went to at times. on the other hand some of the Jokes they could of worked more on such as the Mafia University. What a Great Idea they could of made the Movie on that with the same Results toward the End.It was nice to see Roddney Dangerfield again A Comic Mastermind that is gone. If you are still reading this and going on my Recommendation of seeing this movie or not I say give it a Shot if not this Give the Movies in the Middle of the Video Store a chance there are some gems. The Middle of the Video Store is Like a Box of Choclates You never know what you are going to get.

dunnfilms Have you ever seen a movie that you didn't love the first time but somehow after three or four viewings you find yourself quoting it constantly? This is one of those films. Everyone will not laugh at every joke but the more you see it the more jokes you will get.This silly spoof comedy is smarter than you think it just takes a few times to make it work.
