    So bad it's great.
    I could NOT stop laughing.

    Does that mean I have a juvenile sense of humor? I'll try to feel as bad about that as I can.

    Great casting. Murray Langston runs off with this one in both roles. And I agree with Michael (Psychotronic Magazine) Weldon. Pat Paulsen can make me laugh with a facial expression.

    Billy Barty's gassy chief was a trip too. And Linda Blair was great looking in her semi-serious role.

    The best scene was the two gay cops getting their assignment. "Yes, I'm 1 are you 1 too?" "If you're 1 then you must be 4." "I'm 4 whatever he's 4." It was great seeing a pre 'Diceman' Andrew Dice Clay playing basically himself too.

    A laugh riot.
