This movie is a compilation of short skits... mostly representing what one might find on American late-night television(at least a few decades ago). Having not grown up neither in the right decade nor country, there may be a few jokes that I didn't get. The sketches vary in length, and some are more social commentary and satire than spoofs on commercials and 50's sci-fi/horror. Some of the comedy is pretty dark, but all of it is silly. There is some slapstick, but the majority of it seems to be parodying of commercials, shows and movies. From what I can tell, they hit the mark on most of the stuff pretty good. The R-rating seems like it could have been very, very easily avoided, so I would guess that the directors went for that because there wasn't really anything stopping them. For the benefit of both those seeking it and those trying to avoid it; there is some nudity in this(not an awful lot, but it seemed to last for a long time when it was there), and some swearing(little of it, but it's relatively strong when it's there). The humor varies... most of the material works, though there's the occasional dud. Some gags go on for too long, and there was at least one joke that I saw coming about a minute before it was made. The "guest stars" were pretty good, those of them I knew. One needs only to check the cast list to see that they got some good names on this production. Hartman, I'm sorry to say, is severely underused. The pacing was fair, for a 80 minute long series of comedy sketches. Technically well-produced(except for when it's not supposed to be). All in all, fine parody. I recommend it to fans of the type of movies spoofed(space/sci-fi horror of the 50's) and fans of spoofs. 7/10
