Storyline
Madcap spoof, a collection of comedy skits includes the Kung-Fu parody, "A Fistful Of Yen" and "Catholic School Girls In Trouble." Enjoy the future of movie-going with the "Feel-A-Round" theater experience. See a notable and highly respected actor as the clumsiest waiter in motion picture history. Watch such character as Cleopatra Schwartz and Big Jim Slade tickle your funny bone until it has to be removed surgically! Written by Edwin van Oorschot <info@edwinvanoorschot.nl>

If Tex Avery ever would have directed a live action movie, I imagine it would have been something like this. A great early effort by John Landis, with non-stop jokes that are painfully hilarious. The one that always kills me is 'Danger Seekers', one of THE most politically incorrect skits I have ever seen, and one of the funniest.
