Fireballs

If your game for a PORKYS style T&A flick you may get a kick out of this movie, which a perfect example of the genre but laughably lame in all respects. A Japanese corporation offers to set up a factory in a deep south town if the town has a decent fire department which leaves the party animals currently employed scrambling to save their jobs while ensuring the four new recruits meet their approval.

Stealing its title from other lowbrow comedies of this sort(Screwballs,Meatballs)this is barely even up to those film's standards,and that's definitely not saying much.It's filmed with an amateur camera,the voices are dubbed,the acting is unbearable and the film has absolutely no points of interest.

You really start to wonder if the makers of these sorts of movies even make back the little money they spent making them,I mean surely no video company,no matter how cheap,would buy a film like this.

It may be an exercise in bad film making but the bad taste takes on a life of it's own. It is so bad it is funny at times in that very fact. It surely is not boring and will elicit an emotion of some sort. As far as b movie fodder goes, it funny because it is obvious the film makers were serious about the endeavour but clueless about film making rules and standards. In one scene they race to what you think is a fire but end up at a surprise birthday party for their pet parrot that drinks, sings dirty limericks and snatches women's clothing away from them when they least expect it. Of course there is plenty of gratuitous nudity and the continuity is atrocious. In one sequence a truck travels to the scene of a fire and you see three different trucks in shots edited together. Bad but funny. A little bit anyway.
