BSRLMAO! Can't believe I've never seen this. This must be the missing piece to my whole life!
antMe too. I need to check it out.
LMAO! Can't believe I've never seen this. This must be the missing piece to my whole life!

BSRThe sandy boulder holders did it for me.
And this is just a small piece of the insanity that is this masterpiece !
moonsammyIt confuses me that this movie isn't better-known. Having just looked at the other releases* the month it came out I can completely understand it not being a theatrical success, but it should have caught on via home rental. Nope! Always had a cult following, never anything beyond that.
*First week of June 1984: Star Trek III. Second week, Gremlins and Ghostbusters (yes, on the same day). Third week was dead, but the 4th saw not just Top Secret! but also The Karate Kid. The next week was Bachelor Party, Conan the Destroyer, and Cannonball Run II. I don't think Top Secret! stood a chance.
BSRThanks for doing the leg work on this one. 🦵🦵

moonsammyYou're entirely welcome! I was curious, and rather shocked at how good of a month that was for movies. I don't know that I was previously aware Ghostbusters and Gremlins came out on the same damned day...

StukaFoxsays...I remember seeing every single one of those movies at the Bradshaw Drive-In in Sacramento that year.
"Remember" might be a bit of an over-statement as I was roaring drunk at all of them.
Damn that was kinda a good year.
