How it feels

What happens

Haunted Honeymoon is a 1986 American comedy horror film starring Gene Wilder, Gilda Radner, Dom DeLuise and Jonathan Pryce. Wilder also served as writer and director. The film was distributed by Orion Pictures through a deal with HBO. Upon release it was considered a commercial failure, grossing just short of its $9 million budget and receiving generally negative reviews from critics. DeLuise was awarded the Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Supporting Actress for his performance in drag. Haunted Honeymoon was both Radner's final feature film appearance and Wilder's final film as director. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
