Haunted Honeymoon full HD movie download free with screenpaly story, dialogue LYRICS and STAR Cast

Larry Abbot (Wilder) and Vickie Pearle (Radner) are performers on radio's "Manhattan Mystery Theater" who decide to get married. Larry has been plagued with on-air panic attacks and speech impediments since proposing marriage. Vickie thinks it is just pre-wedding jitters, but his affliction could get them both fired.

Larry's uncle, Dr. Paul Abbot, decides that Larry needs to be cured. Paul decides to treat him with a form of shock therapy to "scare him to death" in much the same way someone might try to startle someone out of hiccups.

Larry chooses a castle-like mansion in which he grew up as the site for their wedding. Vickie gets to meet Larry's eccentric family: great-aunt Kate (DeLuise in drag), who plans to leave all her money to Larry; his uncle, Francis; and Larry's cousins, Charles, Nora, Susan, and the cross-dressing Francis Jr. Also present are the butler Pfister and wife Rachel, the maid; Larry's old girlfriend Sylvia, who is now dating Charles; and Susan's magician husband, Montego the Magnificent.

Paul begins his "treatment" of Larry and lets others in on the plan. Unfortunately for all, something more sinister and unexpected is lurking at the Abbot Estates mansion. The pre-wedding party becomes a real-life version of Larry and Vickie's radio murder mysteries, werewolves and all.

Development

Wilder wrote the opening scene while filming Silver Streak in 1976. He wanted to make a "comedy chiller" inspired by such films as The Cat and the Canary (1939), The Old Dark House (1932) and The Black Cat (1941), and radio shows like The Inner Sanctum. "Since I was 6 years old I have been scared of horror movies," said Wilder "And the movies that I liked the best - even though I was scared by them - were what was called then 'comedy-chillers.' They were horror movies yet they had comedy, or they were comedies and yet they had horror. They were not comedy-mysteries, they were not comedy-thrillers, they were comedy-chillers." Wilder says when he started writing the film "I knew I wanted it to be a comedy-chiller," but he struggled and the film wound up as an "autobiographical psycho/sexual comedy with music."

Wilder and Radner fell in love making Hanky Panky (1982) and he decided to revisit the project as a vehicle for them both. "I always thought that Gilda has been one of our most brilliant television comediennes, but now I think she's becoming more than very good as a comic movie actress, which is a very, very different thing," said Wilder.

Wilder rewrote the script with writing partner, Tony Marsh. "I knew that I wanted it to be not a parody and not a satire, but to re-create a comedy-chiller," said Wilder. "I don't like naturalism. I like things that are fantastical - I'm not saying necessarily fantasies, but more than reality."

Wilder says the film was partly inspired by a song Jeanette MacDonald and Jack Buchanan sang in the film Monte Carlo (1930). Wilder says he heard it while watching the film in bed with Radner. "I'm always looking for some emotional spine to what I'm doing. I look over at her and tears are coming down from her eyes. It was so sweet and innocent. Like little children. And I thought that's what this ('Haunted Honeymoon') is about."

"I couldn't imagine him singing it with any other girl," said Radner. "So, I just had a tantrum and said I had to be the fiancee - not a big tantrum, just a tiny tantrum."

He says he was also inspired by seeing Jean Cocteau's Beauty and the Beast in the early 80s. "The world opened up for me," he said. "I'm more comfortable when I don't have to be held down by authenticity. In this film, which is set in the `30s, I feel that I'm presenting authenticity of the heart. I'm not interested in everyday reality, but in the reality of the heart. I like fantasy, like a fairy tale. I'm interested in shadows and contrasts. It's like the opening scene in the movie, when a character says, `It's not what you think.' Well, it's probably what you think. But it's too complicated."

The movie was one of 14 films financed by Orion Pictures through a deal with HBO.

Shooting

The film was shot in London at Elstree Studios in September 1985 over 11 weeks. "Gene calls it a 'comedy chiller'," said Gilda Radner. "For me, this is a part very similar to my own life. I wear a wedding gown in 95% of the movie. Since I didn't wear a gown when Gene and I got married, I asked the 'Haunted Honeymoon' photographer to make me a wedding album!" Radner said.

Wilder says his aim was to "make a 1930s movie for 1986." He and the cinematographer used no primary colours and lit the film darkly. "It's black and white in color," said Wilder. "The fat lady in Akron, Ohio, doesn't have to know that. But she should feel that it's believable in the way that an old '30s film is believable."

Wilder and Radner celebrated their first wedding anniversary during filming in September.

Jonathan Pryce later recalled, "It was one of those films where, when there’s a break and they’re doing the next setup and people usually go back to their dressing rooms, nobody went back to their dressing rooms. We’d all sit around in a circle of camp chairs or whatever they call them—director’s chairs—and be entertained by Dom DeLuise. It was a blissful time. It was a great time."

Wilder says he told DeLuise to play his role straight, telling him, "I want you to be my aunt,We'll get the laughs later. But first don't go for 'I'm-really-a-guy, I'm-really-a-guy, and- I'm-doing-this-little-joke.' "

Orion elected not to screen the film to critics before general release. Producer Susan Ruskin said:

I know people have the tendency to think, 'Well, the studio must not be comfortable about the film.' They're very comfortable about the film, they've been behind it 100 percent. A lot of the studios, with a lot of their films, are considering not doing advance critics' screenings. There has been a tendency with the critics lately to be quite vicious about films, and we don't necessarily feel it's right to cater to that. . . . I would like the people to make a judgment on the film.

The film received negative reviews. On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 20%, based on 10 reviews, and an average rating of 3.6/10. Dom DeLuise won the Razzie Award for Worst Supporting Actress for his performance in drag.

Box office

The movie was a financial flop, grossing only $8,000,000 in America, entering the box office at number 8, then slipping to 14 the following week.

While Gilda Radner was struggling with cancer, she wrote the following about the film:

On July 26 , Haunted Honeymoon opened nationwide. It was a bomb. One month of publicity and the movie was only in the theaters for a week – a box-office disaster.

Another source said the film earned $3.2 million in the US.
