Really,really funny, 2 January 2003
Author: Freebird2 from USA

I saw this movie as a kid about oh 30 or so moons ago--that's years for you aliens ha! ha!Just watch this as a true comedy which is totally hillarious.You'll see some of the actors in ways you've never seen before.Good thing for the IMDB,because I thought it was one of those movies that has been long gone.Dick Shawn-(Mad,Mad World),Harry Morgan etc.Great comedy.
