Amazon Women On The Moon

1 9 8 7 (USA)

Five directors contributed to this scattershot collection of bawdy sketches satirizing everything from dating to late-night TV via B-grade sci-fi movies and advertising.

The anthology is assembled in the spirit of Saturday Night Live and while some of the gags are clever and inspired, the majority fall flat. A myriad of cult performers invest the only sporadically amusing proceedings with a surface gloss of credibility.

Ironically, the project seems best suited for late-night TV. The real fun (apart from a segment pontificating on whether or not Jack the Ripper's true identity was the Loch Ness Monster) is to watch this on videotape or DVD in the US and then play regular TV and try to spot the difference. There isn't much . . .
