      Don't watch this one.

      It is hard to believe that someone sat in a room, saw this whole movie, and thought it was ok to release. This movie is just a compilation of tv spoofs/skits, and there were many other films like this in the 70s, such as "Kentucky Fried Movie" or "Groove Tube". This is one is bad though. The skits are overlong and drawn out, and some of them have strange or dark subject matters. Combine that with the fact the skits aren't funny, it just leaves me feeling uncomfortable. There are one or two funny bits in the movie, but getting through the rest of the bits is pretty hard (some I just skipped through or fast-forwarded). There are also some bad animations, and it looks like they were just copying Monty Python during the whole movie. There are no big names in it, and the same actors appear in different roles, which I guess is from budget problems. Overall, the movie wasn't funny and just left me feeling uncomfortable.

      Oh dear...

      This movie lasted 44 minutes in the video machine before I ripped it out and that was on fast forward. It's a cheap Monty Python rip off done by Americans with no comedy talent at all, the director must have forgotten to turn up on set as they were filming it. Bring back Kentucky Fried Movie all is forgiven!

      Joe Piscopo is the best thing about this film.

      Okay, I like Piscopo, and have most of his videos, but this truly dredges the bottom. Chuck Vincent attempts to direct this sketch comedy compilation that never quite makes you laugh. There is not enough gratuitous nudity to make up for the lame routines. Piscopo appears in only two bits, "King Dong" and a Steven Spielberg sendup, "Jews". Just not funny.
