And years before Airplane! was The Big Bus '76, a disaster spoof movie aboard a huge nuclear powered bus.

I love comedies like Prime Time(American Raspberry), Groove Tube, Kentucky Fried Movie, Amazon Women on the Moon.

Mockumentary comedies: This Is Spinal Tap, Best In Show, Zelig, Waiting For Guffman, The Making of '...And God Spoke', Brutal Massacre: A Comedy

Last Wave is excellent. Picnic still creeps me out during the scene when the girls disappear. A beautifully shot film.

There's an excellent documentary about Australian Exploitation- "Not Quite Hollywood: The Wild, Untold Story of Ozploitation!"
It talks about Australia's history in sexploitation, horror, action.

Long Weekend(penned by Everett De Roche- whose penned some fantastic Australian films) '78 is an excellent Aussie slow-burn horror film about a couple who go camping out in the woods but because of their total lack of caring about nature, nature decides to get even. It's one of those films that slowly works under your skin.

Love Sleeper, also Manhattan Murder Mystery.



Two of my favorite Sherlock Holme's comedies:

Without a Clue '86 -Michael Caine is hilarious as a drunken clueless Holmes, and it's Watson(Ben Kingsley) who solves the crimes.

Hound of the Baskervilles '78 -Dudley Moore as Watson, and Peter Cook as Sherlock.
