This movie was like the Holy Grail of DVDs for me; I couldn’t find it for the longest time. Finally I just picked it up off E-Bay (which I should have done from the start, of course) and watched it for the first time in years last night.In terms of laughs per minute, this one is a strong contender for funniest movie of all time. Written by Zucker Abraham and Zucker, directed by John Landis, and produced by Samuel L Bronkowitz (just kidding), “The Kentucky Fried Movie” is really nothing more than a collection of skits, barely connected by the convention that they’re all things you might see on TV (or at the movies). But, oh, the skits. Let’s just say that no single episode of “Saturday Night Live” was ever this funny.
Best of the bunch is the movie’s centerpiece, “A Fistful of Yen”, a dead-on parody of kung fu action movies a la “Enter The Dragon”. In this bit, the longest in the film, a Bruce Lee type named Loo has to infiltrate a mountain fortress run by the villainous Dr. Klahn, who is building an army of extraordinary magnitude. The martial arts scenes are hilarious; it may be the most staged-looking fighting of all time. Beginning with Loo training other fighters (“What was that? This is not a chawade. We need total concen-TWAY-tion,” he yells at one student) and ending with Loo finally going home (in a completely out-of-left-field ending having nothing to do with the previous action but seeming somehow fitting anyway), the slapstick jokes come fast and furious, even parodying “The Dating Game” at one point. This is a direct precursor to ZAZ’s later movies like “Airplane!” and “The Naked Gun”.
Then there’s the incredible “Catholic High School Girls in Trouble”, which aims to parody 70s porno flicks (“More shocking than ‘Behind the Green Door’… Never before has the beauty of the sexual act been so crassly exploited!” the announcer screams.) To get an idea of the kind of humor seen here, picture a hot chick approaching a loser and saying in a breathy voice “Show me your nuts!” and the guy proceeding to start acting like a total loon. In “United Appeal for the Dead” Henry Gibson speaks at great length about death, the number one killer in the United States, and what his group can do to help a loved one who has died lead a normal life. “That’s Armageddon” features George Lazenby and parodies every Irwin Allen disaster flick made. A young man and woman discover the pleasures of sex through an instructional record in “Sex Record”, and “Courtroom” is a hilarious parody of courtroom melodramas featuring Wally (the real Tony Dow) and the Beav (Jerry Zucker mugging it up in place of Jerry Mathers) as observers. The movie begins and ends with two news-themed skits, “AM Today” and the racy “Eyewitness News”, in which the newscasters watch a couple with the TV on having sex. And there’s much more.
“The Kentucky Fried Movie” is not for all tastes; I’ve known people who have watched it and just said “This is stupid.” It is, indeed, stupid, but within the confines of the genre, it’s one of the best. You’ll laugh at the stupid jokes and stupid puns and stupid lines and stupid stunts all the way through if you like this sort of thing. The movie is very clever in how it packs the laughs.
Eat lead sucker
Probably doesn’t scale the heights of “Flying High”, but it’s on par in my opinion with “Naked Gun” insofar as the parody stylings of the Zucker brothers and Jim Abrahams go, and worthy of cult status. Essentially, it’s a series of vignettes without any linkage, that spoofs (among others) “Enter the Dragon”, “The Wizard of Oz”, “Leave it to Beaver”, any courtroom movie you care to mention, and the contemporary favourite, blue movie industry (e.g. “Behind the Green Door”).Evan C.Kim is hilarious as the Bruce Lee imitation, playing out (almost scene for scene) the Master’s exploits from “Enter the Dragon”, even down to the detail of his encounters with Dr Han’s (here, played by Master Bong Soo Han) guards (“Let’s meet the guards!”). There’s great mileage in a steamy “preview” of “Catholic High School Girls in Trouble”, starring fictitious “Linda Chambers” (no prizes for guessing the amalgam) daring one stud to show her his nuts (Steven Bishop no less!) with an hilarious response. Some audiences might also recognise the amply attributed Uschi Digart in a prolonged shower scene, while Donald Sutherland, Henry Gibson and Bill Bixby bring some A-list credibility to bear in speedy cameos.
There’s a couple of minor misfires, and it’s certainly not suitable for kids but generally speaking, this is one of the most consistently hilarious films I’ve ever had the pleasure of watching – over and over again for the last twenty-something years. I never tire of seeing George Cheung (as Guard number two) announce his name – Long Wang – then explain how he would wake Dr Han if he was his alarm clock. If you don’t find this film funny, no offence intended, but you may need to see somebody.
