This is another honorable mention in my book. This is a really bizarre one as it's sort of a poor man's Philp K Dick or William Gibson like story, as most of what's going on is hard to follow as it really doesn't make a lick of sense, almost as if the writer was trying to trying way to hard at being cleaver when of course it's the total opposite, much like the writing in Season 6 of "Once Upon a Time"; strangely this film is actually more watchable than that season.
Special effects aren't up to par their like the kind someone did on a home computer very poorly, heck the effects in amateur films from Dead Gentlemen and Zombie Orpheus are better than the ones in this film (ok not quite but at least they knew and put effort in what their doing).
But of course, the strangest part about the whole film is lead actor Raul Julia's in it, I was thinking the same thing as Peril "What the frak is he doing in this movie." But same could be said about a lot of other well known actors like Donald Pleasance whom was in a couple of episodes of this show; it's just one of those things that can't always be helped, when it comes to the track records of most actors and actresses there will always be hits and misses; still you can't help but think an actor or actress of a high caliber deserve better projects.
The riffs in this episode are funny, there are lots of memorable scenes. There is one scene where there are pixels snowing down and Mike says one of my favorite riffs. "This must be how much cocaine you must do to enjoy this movie." I imagine that would be true, though it wouldn't be hard to believe it took that much to write the script for this film.
The host segments are also good this has one of my favorite ones with Pearl. Really love her scam as she's created a bogus PBS like charity drive for her PBS like program which of course is all a ploy to get more money. Really like that Tom is the dupe falling for the scam as he doing it to get lots of faulty tote bags, what the heck he wants with lost of Tote bags is anyone's guess it's Tom after all.
But the true highlight of her segment is one of my favorite songs on the show where both Mary and Bill show their singing talent. I really like that little commercial promo she does where she has this commercial graphic that displays her name several times, I thought wow egocentric much.
But anyway, the song is "Loving lovers" it is just hilarious because of how delightfully bad it is; the song is obviously a parody on all the songs about romance that we hear constantly. Despite the song being hilarious bad it's actually quite beautiful in a strange sense, which is why this song actually is one of my favorite love songs in my book.
This episode is full of hilarity you'll never go bankrupt on.
Rating: 4 stars
