destroythismovie.com: «Ecco
un altro film pronto ad andare dritto dritto nei cesti delle offerte dei centri
commerciali, Transylmania, commedia sboccata che tenta di sfruttare il recente
successo delle horror-comedy. Un gruppo di studenti universitari con gli ormoni
ai massimi regimi parte per bella gita in Romania e, naturalmente, finiranno in
Transilvania e tra vampiri e mostri vari ne succederanno di tutti i colori.
Sorvolando sulla trama e sul palese plagio di quel capolavo chiamato
Fracchia
contro Dracula il trailer di questo film risulta molto deludente e se non siamo
in zona
Epic Movie e schifezze varie poco ci manca».

«Transylmania, which reunites the creative team and principal cast (and
characters) of National Lampoon Presents Dorm Daze and Dorm Daze 2, is a better
horror spoof than all the installments in the Scary Movie franchise combined.
Granted, that's a sign of how low the bar has been set for contemporary movie
parodies, since Transylmania is vulgar, juvenile, gross and not particularly
funny. But it at least tells a story rooted in bona fide horror movie cliches
rather than stringing together a random series of witless pop-culture gags.
Frustrated college horndog Rusty (Oren Skoog) is desperate to meet Romanian
hottie Draguta (Romanian model-turned-actress Irena A. Hoffman), his cybersex
dream girl, so he signs up for a semester abroad at Razvan University, located
in the heart of her haunted homeland. Rusty persuades all his wacky pals to come
along: Insecure Newmar (Tony Denman) and his girlfriend, lusty airhead Lynne
(Jennifer Lyons); stoners Wang (Paul H. Kim) and Pete (Patrick Cavanaugh);
Pete's studious girlfriend and her slutty twin, (real-life twins Natalie and
Nicole Garza); nerdy Mike (Patrick Casey), and weirdo Brady (Joshua "Worm"
Miller); all but the Garzas are reprising their Dorm Daze roles.
Razvan turns out to be more fun than a cheesy horror-movie triple feature, what
with Dean Floca (David Steinberg) being a sinister dwarf (you can tell by the
way his hair is twisted up into little devil horns... that and the torture
chamber in his basement), and Draguta turning out to be a sex-crazed hunchback.
Leather-clad professor Teodora van Sloan (Musetta Vander) slings swords,
crossbows and wooden stakes with maniacal abandon, while the locals abduct
tourists and stage Most Dangerous Game-style man hunts. Not to mention vampire
lord Radu, who has returned to Razvan after a hundred-year absence, and is
scheming to revive his long-dead lady love.
Directors Scott and David Hillenbrand dutifully sing the praises of Young
Frankenstein, but the only evidence of their Mel Brooks admiration is a joke
that hinges on horses farting whenever anyone says "Razvan." Otherwise it's all
gross-out gags involving body cavity concealment, mangled manhoods, vomit,
geysers of blood, sexual acrobatics and flying body parts. Transylmania was
tailor-made for late-night, post-frat party viewing through a haze of
mind-altering substances. Stone-cold sober it's a tedious slog through stale
jokes that feels much longer than its 95-minute running time».
