I megali apofraxi

The unrivaled work of art, directed by none other than takis vougouklakis himself.

This is probably the worst movie I've ever seen in my whole life -then again; I'm only 22, so I guess there's still time. So what's so special about it? Simply: It's funny, not because the jokes are funny by themselves -what jokes?-, but because there is no photography, no script, no duologue's etc. But be cautious. This one's made for Greeks and only. For the rest of the world, this movie is awful. For us, the quote: "cut the morning one because, it will cut you first", is still touching. And one last thing: Tsakonas rules!The man is ugly, he can't act, his voice is annoying, but he is the prototype of every "neoellinas". Each Greek finds a piece of himself in this movie. Having said that, I hope no one shall argue that the movie actually means something to all the odd creatures living on the edge of Europe.

Probably trying to use the heritage of the Monty Pythons, this video era farcical comedy, is the comedy that initiated Greek filmography in surrealism. Believe, me the character of skatofatsa(who is literally stuck in a toilet bucket, and he only appears from the neck up), is the most surreal movie character ever created in Greek cult cinema. Furthermore the characters that add up to the almost non-existent plot are the extremely obese wife of Fonda, and his hilariously dumb assistant, who gets injured in a great variety of ways. In reality both of them (Fonda and the assistant) get into some hilariously weird situations, and some even stranger accidents, that end up being depicted in really surreal comic-styled visual effects....

The reason why i voted a 10 for this movie is mostly sentimental and motivated by pleasant mood.I think that these Greek movies of the 80's are mainly crap(there are always exceptions).My friends ask how you can say that you like high-class films when you also watch these rubbish?Its simple....I passed my preteen and teen years during this period and the whole situation(composed by people's way of acting and how the cities look alike) reminds me these happy years.But that isn't enough for the film to gain the 10.It's simply Tsakonas face and his way of speaking and acting that makes you....cry from laughing!!!!!Is there anyone that have watched the movie in which Tsakonas is playing something like Count Dracula??That's a film that all can name as "cult"...He is unbelievable...!!

Kostas Tsakonas is the definition of Greek cult! A bad and ugly actor, starring in bad and ugly videos of the memorable video era. This one is maybe one of the worst and ugliest pictures a Greek can(not) find in a video store. And it is absolutely delicious! Not only because Tsakonas is hilarious just to look at, but also because the film tries so hard to be a comedy that it makes you laugh only by thinking of it! Filmed with a minimum budget, with no script whatsoever, it reminds of a farce made by school boys. That is way it is lovable: because it brings to mind that innocent time, when one could actually laugh with the mishaps of the plumper/hero. The time when one was about ten.
