Early 80s drug humor
21 May 2022
Saw this again recently on VHS(also own it on Beta),and it's really hilarious. They wouldn't get away with making a movie this crazy today. I bet people would try to ban it if it was released today. It's like Cheech and Chong meets Airplane! Alot of sex and cocaine jokes. Love the Elvira cameos...Mark Blankfield's tour de force for sure. He's on fire in this flick! Can't believe it's the same guy who played Blinkin in that Robin Hood movie. The actress Krista Errickson(Ivy) is also great in this movie. Too bad she hates the movie in real life and thinks she should have chosen to work in Flashdance instead. No way,this movie is way better than boring Flashdance. She made the right choice imo! Some British humor thrown in this movie for good measure even. Only thing that seems dated are the special FX(you can visibly see the wires holding up certain things in midair during some scenes). Otherwise this movie is so epic. It should've been as big as Star Wars,and Blankfield is a comic hero along the lines of Andy Kaufman,Jim Carrey,etc...
