Seen Six - Weekend at Bernie's (1989)
from Scene It Lately?
In this episode of Scene it Lately, Jason Davidson and Dave Williams take a hilariously morbid stroll down memory lane with the outrageous ‘80s cult classic Weekend at Bernie’s. From corporate corruption to corpse comedy, the guys break down what makes this dark slapstick tale about two beach-loving office drones and their very dead boss such a bizarrely enduring watch. Tune in as they unpack the physical genius of Terry Kiser’s performance, the oddball chemistry between Andrew McCarthy and Jonathan Silverman, and the ethical gymnastics required to party with a corpse. With segments like “Corpse of the Party,” “Bernie’s Body Language,” and “Teacher’s Ethics Corner,” this episode dives deep into the absurdity, charm, and pop culture afterlife of a movie that refuses to die. Whether you’re reliving your VHS glory days or meeting Bernie for the first time, this episode will have you laughing, cringing, and possibly reevaluating your next beach weekend.
