Touchstone Pictures
2001 - Rated PG-13 - 1 hr 24 min
Director: Blair Hayes
Starring: Jake Gyllenhaal, Swoosie Kurtz, Marley Shelton, Danny Trejo, Fabio, Zach Galifianakis
Let this movie stand as proof that Fabio can do more than pose for romance novel covers and peddle un-butter via TV. He can also lead cults and strike the fear of God into innocent, brain-washed followers... right?
As stupid as this movie is, it still remains one of my goofy favorites. Honestly, it just makes me laugh, even if I'm in a bad mood. Jake Gyllenhaal is supremely adorable, even trapped inside that bubble, and Swoosie Kurtz is spot-on overcontrolling, battle axe mother. In addition to Fabio, there are lots of other great cameos and a whole cast of wacky characters that make this movie fun. Even the 'bad guy' is fun to laugh at.
Don't watch this for its intellectual content; just watch it when you need a good laugh.
Oh and by the way, Zack Galifinakis is in it... before The Hangover, he was a tiny bit-part actor. See if you can find him :)
