Some movies are too bizarre to believe. This lost HBO production from the late '70s disappeared forever until YouTube came along decades later to restore it. And nothing of value was gained. It's a relic that is better off staying buried.
A send-up of sci-fi films and cable programming of the 1970s, this early dud from National Lampoon is a failure to launch. Despite the promising title, it's just some dude in a beaver costume accompanied by a disco track. Zero stars is too generous, yet the incessant theme tune persists rent-free in my head.
There is no redeeming value at all; no humor, nothing memorable. And yet, had I seen this when I was younger, would it have held a greater impact on me? Who can say?
