The Worst Film Ever
Simply A Masterpiece
Good concept, poorly executed.
Absolutely the worst movie.
This 1989 comedy stars Allan Katz, Corey Parker, Melora Hardin, Tom Skerritt, Jessica Harper and Cindy Williams. This is basically a send-up of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" where we meet Bob (Katz), a semi-deformed, wild-man who dwells in an old bell/clock tower on a college campus. Soon, he makes his presence known getting into mischief and learning people skills. Parker (How I Got Into College) plays Alex, a college student who becomes his friend & roommate, Hardin (The Office) plays Alex's girlfriend, Cathy who is the object of Bob's Affection, Skerritt (Top Gun) plays psychologist, Webster, Harper (Suspiria) plays psychiatrist, Fisk who thinks Bob is a danger to society and Williams (Laverne & Shirley) plays professor, Girard who falls for Bob. I grew up watching this and always enjoyed it. The cast is decent, Katz is especially great and his facial expressions remind me a bit of Ed O'Neill's (Married with Children). This is an amusing late 80's comedy with humor and heart I recommend.
i found this movie to be a slapstick comedy that surpassed all my expectations.i would recommend this film to anyone who loves to watch a moviejust so they can laugh.when my good woman first told me about this movie,i thought no not for me.It didn't help that while trying to tell me about the film,she constantly laughed,so i didn't really find out anything of substance of the storyline.i eventually sat down and watched the film and laughed from start to finish.the storyline isn't important,as this film is just a good movie to make you laugh:)
This is a great "bad" movie! It was one of my favorites in high school. I love Bob Maloogaloogaloogalooga....looga. It is very silly, and sometimes cheesy, but Bob rocks. A must see.
This is possibly one of the funniest movies ever! But one that absolutely nobody has heard of. I stumbled across it when it was first released and my local video store had a promotional copy in. That was it - hooked!You've just got to watch it to check out the look on Bob's face when he's been goaded into eating all of the chocolate cake.A classic !
