Everything from old science fiction films to TV movie critics is mercilessly lampooned in this bizarre off-the-wall comedy presented by John Landis.



The irrelevant attack on contemporary life and the mass media revolves around a television channel that keeps viewers interested in a 1950's style sci-fi movie by interspersing a series of wild commercials, wacky shorts and weird specials.



This outrageous film serves up an affectionate tribute to some of the silliest spectacles ever created in the name of entertainment, featuring the madcap antics of many of today's hottest stars.
