It turns out, the world can’t get enough of the Weasel.
After a 10 year hiatus from acting to concentrate on his stand-up tours andvarious podcasts,Pauly Shore,52, returned to the big screen in September 2020 with the raunchy comedyGuest House.
It turned out to be an On-Demand hit.
In late September,Guest House(now on Netflix and DVD) was one of the most viewed films at home, just four spots behindPete Davidson’sKing of Staten Island, and one spot behind theHarry Potterfilms franchise.
Shore, who had big success with comedies in the early ’90s with films such asSon in LawandBio-Dome, said being back on set after so long felt like being home.
“It really did,” he told PEOPLE in September. “I was starring in movies for so long, and it turns out I really missed it. I missed the camaraderie on the set, I missed the caterers, the wardrobe people, the makeup person…working with fun actors. Getting back into it just came second nature, almost like surfing.”

Shore, who grew up the son of comedians Sammy and Mitzi Shore (his mother famously ranThe Comedy Store in Hollywoodin the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s), spent much of the past 20 years touring the country doing stand up—which he’s still doing regularly. (He hasupcoming showsthis month in Daytona, Orlando, Tampa and Port Charlotte, Florida)
“Stand up saved me,” he said. Beginning in the late ’90s, Shore hit the road touring every city in North America, meeting people from all over the country. “It was in me from when I was little,” he said of doing stand up and wanting to make people happy. “I was a funny kid, and loved making people laugh.”
He also loves thatGuest Househas been doing so well.
His film also stars Aimee Teegarden, Billy Zane, Chris Kattan and Steve-O.
Guest House is now on Netflix, Amazon Prime, and DVD and Blu-Ray
