LAMPOON THIS!
Fairly conventional documentary of the very unconventional National Lampoon comedy machine through the decades. Footage and photos of the times interspersed with recollections by the remaining survivors today, talkin’ bout the glory days, which, at their height, had the magazine #1 in the college readership and second only to Cosmo in national circulation. Out of that grew cabaret acts, SNL, and “Animal House” et al. Always known for their subversive humor of dubious taste, it’s quite shocking to see what was considered progressive in the 60’s, 70’s, and ’80’s viewed from the pc world of today.

There once was a time in which people actually could get shocked by a MAGAZINE. Those were the days…
A movie about a magazine? Yes, not just any magazine though. It was the time in which many taboos were broken about sexuality, religiion and racism. It’s rise to fame was back in the late sixties and early seventies. And the National Lampoon made the mold of breaking taboos.

The magazine eventually died a spiritual and financial death, caused by lack of advertisers because the magazine was heavily boycotted, due to their offensive religious jokes, that didnt go down well with politics, when the hippie years were finally over.

The good: we get to see a snapshot of time, which was a remarkable period and the birth of many genius comedians of whom John Landis (director) and Bill Murray (actor) are the best known (living) examples today. But we get to see John Belushi in his early days as well, which is the nicest surprise.

However eventful and provocative their magazine was, this documentary is not an absolute thrill to watch, because some of the key creative minds are dead now and the other lesser artists are old and kinda jaded…

Bill Murray did not take part in this documentary. I can only guess why…
