This is a sketch comedy movie done in the style of a movie trailer. It's another in the long line of films that filled theaters in the mid to late 1970's like Kentucky Fried Movie, Groove Tube, American Raspberry, and Tunnelvision, promising to do what Saturday Night Live was doing but with dirty words and naked women. Among the titles and subjects are: "The Howard Huge Story", "Skate-boarders from Hell", "The Invasion of the Penis Snatchers", Woody Allen (pre-Mia), movie trailer come-ons, Charlie Chaplin, war movies, Billy Jack. A very large number of stars, and soon to be stars, make short appearances during the various skits.
