I caught a few Weird Al videos in the 80's...I was never a huge fan. But when I saw this, there were moments I was driven to the silliest laughing fits. I still laugh just from remembering the horribly inappropriate moment when the little kid spat in Uncle Nutsy's face. This is definitely a guilty pleasure kind of comedy.
The only movie that had me laughing this hard since UHF was Something About Mary. I got the DVD because my VHS copy is worn out.
Weird Al manages to make even the usually interminable DVD menu screens into a funny little joke on the DVD, though he provides needlessly derogatory and self-deprecating narratives of the deleted scenes section.
Thanks, Weird Al, for making us laugh. |
