    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      This is the first motion picture to feature Paul Reubens as Pee Wee Herman.
    • Goofs
      In the scene where Red and Chong walk into the music store, Chong picks up a Fender Stratocaster and starts playing. The camera cuts around the store and, when it cuts back to Chong, he is suddenly playing a Gibson Les Paul.
    • Quotes

      Cheech (singing): Mexican Americans / love education / so they go to night school / and take Spanish / and get a B.

    • Crazy credits
      The music was played just a second before the Universal logo appeared.
    • Alternate versions
      An edited TV version shown on the Comedy Central cable network removes most of the drug references. For example, instead of "bag of weed," "bag of diamonds," was used, which made for a strange ending.

    Cheech and Chong Strike Again
    The two stoners (Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong) and their friends go through another series of crazy, drug-influenced misadventures.

    Almost everyone agrees that this second Cheech and Chong film is not as good as the first ("Up In Smoke"). I would have to agree with them. Whereas the first film had so many memorable and classic moments, this one just does not have that level of impact. Still fun and funny, but not the cultural milestone of the first film.

    Where this film excels is in the casting of Paul Reubens, Phil Hartman, Elvira, Edie McClurg and the Groundlings. And, before the Pee-Wee Herman movie did it, the use of the song "Tequila". Seeing the Groundlings together in one film before many (most?) of them broke into the big time is a special treat.
