The Silence of the Hams Reviews. A poke in the eye with a knife is more alluring. Unfunny spoof. Lacks bite, timing and good ideas. Horrible wanna-be Airplane type spoof. Only thing worth noting ...

[ 3 ] Time Out London called it a "wholly redundant exercise", [ 4 ] while Empire criticised it for "a script staggeringly bereft of humour or invention, and a clumsy, amateurish direction that seems largely concerned with focusing ...

While the writer, director, and star of The Silence of the Hams, Ezio Greggio, had initially written a spoof script that focused entirely on the classic Alfred Hitchcock movie Psycho, Greggio was pressured by his financiers to make the movie more current. Although Greggio was asked to rewrite the film as a parody of the more recent hit The Silence ...
Boasting a staggering 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, The Silence of the Hams stands out as perhaps the lowest point in actor Dom DeLuise’s career. While the comedic actor starred in tons of movies – some extremely well-received, some not so much – The Silence of the Hams scored even lower than the likes of Baby Geniuses and Sextette, which are often consid...
Part of the problem with most spoof movies is their obnoxious overreliance on pop culture references and current events. Not only do they generally fail to mine laughs from the audience, but they also age extremely poorly, often feeling extremely dated as a result. While movies like Psycho and The Silence of the Lambs are timeless, however, The Sil...
While a lot of big-budget movies tend to populate their casts with a wide variety of cameo appearances from famous actors, The Silence of the Hamsswitches things up a bit by featuring a whole host of cameos from renowned film directors, despite the movie’s modest budget. Amongst the featured directors are John Landis, John Carpenter, Joe Dante, Rud...
Appearing in several highly regarded films such as 12 Angry Men, The Taking of Pelham One Two Three and A Thousand Clowns– which went on to win him the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor – Martin Balsam is a respected actor with an incredibly impressive legacy.

Even the most obscure, terrible movies ever made somehow manage to secure themselves a release on DVD – and if they’re lucky even on Blu Ray – but for some reason The Silence of the Hamswas never released on either, making it a notoriously hard to find movie. Your best bet is tracking down a VHS of the movie, but even that isn’t cheap given its obs...
A lot of writers tend to have a story about how the inspiration for their latest project suddenly struck them – and more often than not they’re actually fairly interesting. The story of how Ezio Greggio came up with the idea for The Silence of the Hams, however, is slightly less inspiring. RELATED: The 10 Funniest Moments In Mel Brooks Movies, Rank...
In perhaps one of the movie’s most redeemable moments, director Mel Brooks cameos as a ‘checkout guest’, though his role is very brief. Strangely enough, however, director Rudy De Luca also has a small role in the movie as a character named Malicious Mel, who is also named after Mel Brooks. Many of the film’s cast and crew – perhaps most notably Gr...
While it’s not hard to track down the box office performance of most theatrically released movies regardless of their year of release, there’s a big question mark surrounding The Silence of the Ham’s numbers. The budget appears to have been recorded, costing around $3 million to produce, but most of the movie’s box office numbers have completely va...

This film is an above average spoof of movies like Silence of the Lambs and Psycho. Lots of good cameos and sight gags. Here is one of the better gags: Jayne is in the shower and dramatic music is building. She throws open the shower curtain and tells the small string orchestra that is in the bathroom to leave.
Jul 25, 1994 · As its title suggests, “The Silence of the Hams” is a very distant (and slightly retarded) cousin to the genre-parody pix of Mel Brooks and the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker gang. There’s a ...

The Silence of the Hams. 1994. ★★★½. Tread lightly re-watching movies that were at least partly guilty pleasures the first time. The cold light of accumulated decades is bound to be unflattering. I knew there wasn't a whole lot to recommend about "The Silence of the Hams"; I saw it repeatedly on cable in the mid-'90s and always had a ...
