If you like to laugh at the ridiculous, but it is not corny

if you like to laugh!  This preposterously wild casting and character development along with Eddy the dog is really great

Let me say this up front. Not everyone will like this book. If you are looking for something serious, you probably won't want to get this book. Heck, even if you aren't, there's a chance that you may not like the tone in this book. Either way, you should still probably check it out. It's pretty funny.

The book follows the adventures of Dunkin, an obese vampire hunter who has spent a good portion of his long life alone. He has to eat or the vampire blood inside of him may take over. It isn't until he meets the hairy carpenter Ash & the alcoholic detective Devil that his life begins to change for the better & he finds that there may be life after Twinkies. With wimpy vampire masters, man eating anacondas, vampiric animals & the hottest female vamp this side of Kate Beckinsale, Dunkin may finally have bitten off more than he can chew.

Ok, so now I'm going to attempt to elaborate on the "you may not like this book" bit. This book manages to combine the silliness of a Marx Brothers movie with the fun of an old pulp novel. Part of what makes this book work so well is that Crites manages to pull off some of the funniest one liners I've read in vampire fiction lately. Is this book going to win the high muckity muck award from the high & mighty so & sos? Nah, probably not. Is it entertaining & fun to listen to? Yup, you betcha.

If you are unsure as to whether or not you want to buy this book, there are podcasts of this available on the internet to listen to & I encourage you to hear them. Crites is incredibly fun to listen to. (But you should buy the books as well & read while listening- it'd be like those read along books, only instead of a chime telling you to turn the page there would be a big HAR!)

On the front cover of this DVD in big bold letters it says in quotes "Outrageously Funny" - I didn't think that this movie was particularly outrageously funny, certainly not something I'd die laughing over, but if there were two movies on, One that I know is Outrageously Funny, and Forces of Nature, I would rather watch this movie any day. It is true that this movie did contain some lines of good humor, and some traits and sequences intended to make the easily laughable laugh, and I can see why people would write "this movie is horrible" in their review, simply based on this humor. But that just proves my theory that the best way to watch a movie is to forget about what everyone else is saying, forget about the fact that The box the DVD came in is kind of odd, or that the Interface is somewhat pixelated and over active, and just watch the movie looking to enjoy it. This movie deserves a 5 rating because it is a movie that I can sit down and watch, mainly because of it's fun attaching nature, and the fact that while it may be touted as a comedy or a love story or whatever else the reviewers may write, this movie is a perfect conglomeration of all the elements of film making with a little bit of every style, with not too much or not too little of any. Get this movie and watch it, you won't regret it.

This is the first romantic comedy I have read. For those who enjoy this genre, I'm sure this will be a hilarious delight. Since I have no novels to compare it too-I would say it reminded me of an episode of Sabrina the Teenage Witch. In my head, there was canned laughter and everything. If you are weary of reading this due to the "sex" which is implied in the title, rest assured, this book does not read like an erotica. It's silly sex scenes, that I think daytime television could get away with.

The book starts off in one person's head, then quickly branches to several others, so it was hard to get attached to someone, but sometimes comedies are like that, bouncing around to whoever can give them the best laugh. The characters all had very strong personalities that helped me to keep track of who's head I was in.

I received "Sex Hell" for free from Sage's Blog Tours in exchange for an honest review.

Absolutely hilarious. Even the parts I didn't agree with still had me smiling as I shook my head. You need to have a sense of humor to read this book- the author is trying to be outrageous so if you're easily offended, skip it. If you can handle offensive humor (think South Park), you will die of laughter several times. I was sorry when it was over! I'm sure I'll read it again as I try to get through the toddler years ahead of me :)

Funny.  Nice to read when one is taking the world too seriously.  Laughter even from goofy jokes, is good for the soul.

The type of humor: people with sense having expense at those who don't. Subtle puns. The "wait, what?" effect - i.e., situations that are funny because they don't entirely make sense.

This is not an anti-war book. So someone reading it to find a criticism of war in general, or Korean War politics in particular, should look elsewhere (Catch 22? Any Vonnegut?). Nor is it plot driven - it has minimal continuity.

But it is a series of hilarious episodes that at the same time swear off stupidity in all its forms: arbitrary rules, silly military customs, racial questions (a bit), charlatans, hacks, and most of all people who take themselves too seriously.

One of my favorite books, which I reread middle-end-beginning-middle any time I should pick it up.

In today's political environment I found it very refreshing to read something humorous in the right way.  Yes he is ridiculous but that is his point.  He means to be!

This film is not there to give you realistic plot. It's talking Cats and Dogs for ChristSakes! But it is long on humor. You have to go into this knowing that what you are about to see is make-believe. So don't go into this thinking you will see realistic situations that a trained animal could do. Watch it for the fun of it and laugh right along with it and you'll love it.

Movie reviews are hopelessly subjective, but my take on it:

 - Absolutely hilarious
 - Too callously violent for my taste

Definitely worth a watch if you can tolerate the overall attitude of the movie that it's okay to laugh at or be entertained by people getting hurt. That's not for me, but there's enough smart humor in this to offer anyone a lot of laughs nevertheless. We bought this title because my wife, unlike me, 100% adores this movie.

It's hysterically funny. There is a lot of foul language in it, but the book I so much fun that I did find it offensive.

The family is ridiculous. The situations are hilarious. The second in the series is even better than the first. A rarity for me this book had me laughing out loud enough that my husband commented on it. If you need a laugh and you like snarky humor, this is the right choice!

This is probably one of the funniest shows i've ever watched. It may not be for everybody because it can stupid and childish, but if you like that you'll love this.

This book is hilarious and crazy, but also very moving.  The profanity might not be for everyone, but for those of us who don't mind salty language it's a lot of fun.

Well, okay, this isn't exactly split-your-sides comedy, but like the best writing, it's funny and droll and at the same time it makes serious points to make you think, about the hypocrisy surrounding the economy, about world governments and the money-men who can make - or break a country and its inhabitants, and, of course, the music business.

Written in a light-hearted way (and not without a large helping of cynicism), A Musician offers numerous sensible tips to all the optimists out there with musical talent (and to those without it too) and makes clear that being an artist of any sort requires determination, hard work and an understanding of the way the world works - and how best to circumvent the bear-pits scattered along the way.

A Musician's many amusing tips include how to get your dog a credit card when the bank has confiscated yours. Handy when you want to buy a new woofer!

A perceptive piece of work from someone who actually made it in the business and writes - presumably - equally perceptive songs.

Kind of corny but it also has some good laughs. Overall, quite enjoyable.

But it's alot of fun.  Silly, ridiculous, even touching at times.  This movie doesn't take itself seriously, or anything else, for that matter.  It makes the most of being outrageous and wild, and it succeeds very nicely in that.  It isn't trying to be a politically correct straight movie; in fact, it is just the opposite, and that is its charm.

I know, I know, I should be offended by this movie and its portrayal of gay stereotypes, but I'm just not.  We gay people are widely varied, so why not celebrate how special we are, from screaming queens to butch bears, etc.  I for one am proud to be part of such a great community!!
