I recently noticed that Kentucky Fried Movie has been released on DVD. Now I remember watching this movie years ago and thought it hilarious but my experience now tells me that some movies don’t really age well and when view years later aren’t as funny as remembered; Johnny Dangerously is one that springs to mind.

Has anyone seen KFM recently and what did they think as I am in a quandary about whether to outlay my hard earned on it?

Is it still funny or a bit of a stinker?

BB,

We all saw it when we were at school. It was a very funny movie.

BTW, is your sig supposed to say "Strike while the irony's hot"

I saw the KFC movie about 10 years ago and like others here, I found it be quite funny and inventive... but not sure how I would take it now. Directed by John Landis, who went on to do 'Animal House' as his next project.

Another film that is of similar structure is 'Amazon Women on the Moon' a sketch-based comedy (also co-directed by Landis) made in 1986. That probably isn't as good, but it has its moments.

Yeah I remember that and the Enter The Dragon parody and scene with the couple making love in front of the t.v with the news reader and all the crew watching them get it on. :D Maybe I'll wait until it drops down to $17.99 or something.:)
