Also includes AMAZZING Borat stuff!

Funny Stuff: Bill Murray, Live at Second City



Description:

(1980) Early funny footage of a young Bill Murray joined by fellow Second City partners Mary Gross, Tim Kazurinsky and a thinner (but not by much) George Wendt doing a bunch of skits on a small, intimate stage.

A very cool oddity documenting Murray at the height of his comedic power. Very good Picture and Sound from a loong out of print pre-record source, with menu and chapter stops. Sound/Picture 8/10

Funny Stuff: Bo Selecta



Description:
In case you were wondering...that title derives from a Craig David song containing the line "Re-rewind, the crowd say bo' selecta", which roughly translates as "Play that record again, DJ". Trivia note over, this tasteless, shamelessly stupid and jaw-droppingly outrageous series is definitely not for all tastes, but if you're as fed up as I am with the constant flow of dull, ego-crazed, media-whoring microcelebrities that flood our televisions and newspapers, then you might want to give it a try.
Be warned, it's not all good - hey, even Monty Python had their off-days! - but if you're receptive to a bit of rubber-masked, over-exaggerated silliness, chances are you'll be quoting the characters and the catchphrases for weeks. Definite traces of Spike Milligan, the Python boys, Spitting Image and Viz comic pulse through the humour, and it's all very British.

Funny Stuff: Brass Eye



Description:

Made For TV (1997) [TV-Series 1997-2001] Directed by Michael Cumming. Brilliant brilliant show from Britain from the people that made the equally brilliant 'Day Today". A collection of "news specials" that cover everything from "crime" to "sex" to the controversial special from 2001. This is done so perfectly, yet so over the top, your not sure it's a put on or whether it really is a news program from some kind of insane Bizarro-Britain. Highest recommendation! Perfect Picture and Sound from an international PAL dvd source with menu and chapter stops. 2 disc Dvd-R set. Sound/Picture 10/10

Action family is kind of a spoof of 2 tv genres: The family sitcom and seventies cop dramas, while F.D.R. is an amazing spoof of every small town pompous 'one man shows' that are put on every summer. Chris Elliot is awesome! Highest recommendation! Very good Picture and Sound from a long out of print commercial pre-record source with menu and chapter stops. Sound/Picture 8.5/10

Funny Stuff: Day Today



Description:

Made For TV (1994) The first of the BRILLIANT TV news parodies helped launch the careers of the amazing Chris Morris and Steve Coogan. This series parodied the 'hard-hitting', loud, logo-obsessed Gulf War-era style of journalism, skewering sports journalism, weather reports, American news programs, business reports, soap operas, and more. A MUST HAVE! Perfect Picture and Sound from an out of print international PAL dvd source with menu and chapter stops. Sound/Picture 10/10 Complete series in a 2 Dvd-R set.

Funny Stuff: Doctor Ducks Super Secret All-Purpose Sauce



Description:

Directed by William Dear, Michael Nesmith -1985 Michael Nesmith has an eye, a feel for comedy. Merely saying that he is easily the most talented of the Monkees is an insult. And here stands the proof. Doctor Duck's is a sequel to Nesmith's earlier "Elephant Parts", and, like that earlier work, this is a compilation of short comedy sketches and music videos, showcasing then up-and-coming talent, including the likes of Jerry Seinfeld, Jay Leno, and Garry Shandling. It's fast paced, well shot, well edited, and it should have received more attention than it did on release. Nesmith's dry wit, impeccable timing and attention to detail make this the shortest 90 minute video you'll ever see. This is Nesmith's medium, and I sincerely hope that he someday returns to delight us further....

Funny Stuff: Fear, Anxiety and Depression



Description:
Directed by Todd Solondz. 1989
Dismiss the fact that, in the starring role and as author of the script, Solondz comes off as a Gen-X version of Woody Allen, get past that already-been-done persona and you'll find a fun little film here. Though the film centers on Solondz' character, to his credit as scriptwriter, he endows his supporting characters with fully developed and multivaried personalities and situations. This provides opportunity for the supporting actors to turn-in some terrific performances, most especially Jill Wisoff as Ira's Solondz' insistent girlfriend Sharon Oscar-Nom worthy, if you ask me. Some excellent compositions in the cinematography, some of the most eccentric locations you'll find in New York, and a downright infectious end-title song "Neat Kind of Guy" make this a sure-bet for your video-renting pleasure. Not the best film, but it definitely delivers a few good laughs.

Funny Stuff: Gettin Square



Description:

Gettin' Square (2003) Directed by Jonathan Teplitzky

100 min Country: Australia / UK

English /Color

David Wenham is totally amazing and hilariously funny in a what-just-happened scene-stealing performance as a loser, luckless drug addict and criminal, Johnny “Spit” Spitieri.

Foregoing his leading man features for ratty mullet hairdo, glazed eyes, a permanently dazed expression and rotten teeth, and his outfit of tiny shorts, tight jeans and loud shirts ($14.95 at K-Mart) are jaw dropping. Funny stuff.

A great print: Picture/Sound 9/10

Funny Stuff: Guest House Paradiso



Description:
Directed by Adrian Edmondson 1999
Writing credits Adrian Edmondson, Rik Mayall.
Richie and Eddie are in charge of the worst hotel in the UK,Guest House Paradiso, neighbouring a nuclear power plant. The illegal immigrant chef has fled and all the guests have gone. But when a famous Italian filmstar, Gina Carbonara, who is in hiding from a fiance she doesn't want to marry, arrives at the hotel, things get very interesting! Another family come to the hotel as it is the only one they can afford, and when Richie uses the many tunnels and airways to steal some of their rubber bikinis, then is caught by the family's dad, he tries everything to get the video back. When Eddie finds some radioactive fish and it's served to the customers, a bunch of power plant workers find out and a quaratine is on its way. Even worse, when Gina's estranged fiance arrives, all hell breaks loose! Just in time for Eddie, Richie and Gina to escape to the Carribean and spend all their new found money!
This is probably the funniest thing I have ever seen - from start to finish it was perfect in timing, atmosphere, punch lines, background music, fighting sequences and every other possible aspect you can think of. To be absolutely honest i find this movie as funny as their Rik & Ade's sitcom "Bottom" - maybe even funnier. I laughed constantly throughout the whole movie and can only recommend seeing this film... However, if you watch it without knowing or liking? the type of comedy Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson has done before, you might not think it's funny at all - but I REALLY can't understand those who dislike it - THIS IS HUMOUR FOLKS!!! People getting hit with frying pans, guys running around wearing red rubber lingerie, green vomit filling the hallways, guys getting kicked in the b******s and getting candlesticks in the eyes - HOW can this NOT be funny??? 10/10

Funny Stuff: Hellzapoppin



Description:
Directed by H.C. Potter. 1941 Classic
Ole and Chick are making a movie, but the director is not satisfied. So he brings them to a young writer, who outlines them a absurd story They have to support Jeff and Kitty in setting up an musical revue in their garden and want to bring it up on Broadway. If Jeff is sucessful he can marry Kitty. But there is his rich friend Woody, who also loves Kitty, Chick's sister Betty, who's in love with a false Russian count, and Detective Quimby. They all make the thing very complicated for Ole and Chick. After some mistakes they think, that Kitty isn't the right girl for Jeff, they start sabotating the show, but the Broadway producer is impressed and signs the contract. Not that the plot matters in this nutty flick other than to hang the hijinx on. Watch for a dance sequence that is one of the most well-known 'Lindy Hop' scenes from the Swing Era. A warning from the film's start claims, “Any similarity between Hellzapoppin' and a motion picture is purely coincidental.”

Funny Stuff: I Woke Up Early the Day I Died



Description:
Directed by Aris Iliopulos.
I've been disappointed, if not surprised, at the lack of appreciation this film has received. Once again, Billy Zane proves he's more than just a Hollywood pretty boy in a silent performance that combines spastic slapstick with understated pathos. Calling this a silent film is inaccurate, as there's a lot of music and sound. It has a manic pace and is full of the goofy inventiveness that Ed Wood is finally beginning to be appreciated for. Look at the cast listing, and realize that everyone shines. No one is there just to show their face. I believe they're all in the movie to show their appreciation of Wood, and to do a broad, physical kind of acting not seen much these days.
But, today, reviewers try to guess what's going to become a hit much more than they show any kind of esthetic appreciation for a movie. And IWUETDID has no discernable target audience. It was made mostly out of love for Wood's script. Even after his death, the trendy social parasites have dealt him another serious blow, and deprived the world of a minor classic. This is a highly entertaining and a genuinely experimental film that really deserves to live, at least on DVD.

Funny Stuff: It Came from Hollywood



Description:
Directed by Malcolm Leo, Andrew Solt.1982
In what seems to be a precursor to "Mystery Science Theater 3000", several famous comedians playing themselves mock some of Hollywood's worst movies ever. Cheech and Chong have lots of fun with "The Amazing Colossal Man", while John Candy and Dan Aykroyd love playing with Ed Wood's movies. Gilda Radner has a hysterically weird experience after hearing on the radio of an escaped gorilla. They all have some great comments and gags, especially when Chong orders an unusual container of popcorn. Either way, "It Came from Hollywood" is a testament to how funny all of these people really are. You'll love the "intimate" scene between Candy and Aykroyd.

Funny Stuff: Mr. Mikes Mondo Video



Description:
Directed by Michael O'Donoghue. The TV show that can't be shown on TV! "Mr. Mike's Mondo Video" was created under the auspices of NBC-TV as a proposed network special. NBC's motivation for doing so was largely supported by O'Donoghue's strength as a writer and performerfor Saturday Night Live, then one of NBC's few genuine hit shows. When NBC censors saw the finished product, they were horrified; much as they had been when Richard Pryor's earlier comedy specials were first reviewed. But unlike the situation had been with Pryor, NBC rejected "Mr. Mike", which sent O'Donoghue packing from the network, Saturday Night Live and all. 'Twas a pity; after all, his unpredictable, twisted sense of humor had helped to make SNL distinctive, and his departure was the first indicator of the gradual decline of SNL into the mediocrity it eventually became.
Somehow M O'D retained the rights to the finished product, and it was released as a theatrical film in 1980; the author was one of perhaps a half dozen souls who braved it in first release at my particular theater. Few films have been such a poor draw, and it was pulled from distribution very quickly. NBC's main objection to the show was the inclusion of a clip of ex-Sex Pistol and suspected murderer Sid Vicious singing Paul Anka's song "My Way" and firing a pistol at the camera. It's arguably the weakest segment in the film, but for some reason M O'D refused to part with it. When "Mr. Mike's Mondo Video" was issued on VHS in 1985 the audiotrack to this segment was expunged from the release, as Anka's publishing company refused to grant a license for the song. Ironically, the same segment, in a somewhat different visual form, appears in Julien Temple's Sex Pistols film "The Great Rock and Roll Swindle", and no such censorship is imposed in the video release. I am commenting as I am surprised by the low viewer rating for this title on the imdb. Some of the segments here are quite honestly among the funniest, darkest, most irreverent comedy ever committed to film. Fans of offbeat humor really shouldn't miss this one; much of it is still cutting edge two decades on, and certain segments are even now enough to reduce me to helpless hysterics, tears rolling down my cheeks with laughter. Mr. Mike, your "Mondo Video" is so funny, it hurts.

Funny Stuff: Trigger Happy 2



Description:
First shown by Channel 4 at the beginning of 2000, Trigger Happy TV is one of those hidden-camera shows that plays pranks on the unsuspecting public. The brainchild of writer-performer Dom Jolly and his co-director Sam Cadman, it's a beguiling selection of endearingly daft scenes triggered by the admirably straight-faced Jolly (an inappropriate name if ever there was one). His characters include, among many others, a traffic warden who ticks off street cleaners for parking their carts on double-yellow lines; a business man who produces a three-foot-long mobile phone and bellows loudly into the handset; and an incompetent secret-service agent who sidles up to people on park benches, slipping them cryptic messages.
