Check out this first time watching this throwback classic 70's movie reaction video for The Kentucky Fried Movie, and see if I can make it through this action movie. Horror is a genre I've barely explored, mostly because I'm a huge wuss. Typically my Halloween movie viewings consist of Hocus Pocus and Halloweentown. This year I decided to expand my horror movie knowledge and try and watch these horror movie fan favourites.

This was a reaction of extraordinary magnitude. You have my gratitude.
Let’s give Jen a great big hand!
Butkuss!
Spoken like someone who understands the importance of zinc oxide in our lives
@@benntura beat me to it
The Kentucky Fried Movie not only launched the career of director John Landis, it also served as the prototype for the kinds of parody movies that writers Jim Abrams and David and Jerry Zucker would go on to write and direct, beginning with Airplane! The Kentucky Fried Movie is a television parody compilation based on old television shows, television news programs, television movie trailers, and television commercials from the 1970s, along with a movie parody of Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee. It was the template for the films that Abrams and the Zucker Brothers would go on to make in the 1980s.
Yeah, these are from the guys behind Airplane, The Naked Gun and Top Secret. 😊
a fist full of Yen is making fun of Enter the Dragon, Bruce Lee's best movie. you need to review that movie please.
I was also going to ask to have this reviewed.
Don't forget the title. It's a play on Fistful Of Dollars.
"It was a dream of extraordinary magnitude." Cue the flamethrower hand. Cracks me up every time.
Bill Bixby: The Incredible Hulk, My Favorite Martian, The Courtship of Eddie's Father, The Magician
Henri Gibson: Rowan & Martin's Laugh Inn
George Lazenby: On Her Majesties Secret Service
Also to know, anytime you watch John Landis movie, the phrase "See You Next Wednesday", it's a running gag that appears in all of his movies. Sometimes it's a movie poster, sometimes it's on a billboard, and in the film American Werewolf in London, it's a fake adult film.
Airplane was the next movie for the ZAZ team. But Landis made a spiritual sequel to this movie called Amazon Women on the Moon. Another sketch comedy movie based around 80s late night tv channel surfing
From the first scene of Arsenio Hall getting beaten up by his own apartment I was hooked. Very dumb and very funny.
Amazon Women On The Moon is great.
That wasn't just a leave it to beaver reference.
That was the actor who played Walley.
Bill Bixby was a huge TV star, with some film roles. He started in 3 long-running series in the 60s & 70s: My Favorite Martian, The Courtship of Eddie's Father, and The Incredible Hulk .
They were supposed to get Jerry Mathers as the Beaver, too, but Mathers turned it down, so one of the writers did his best goofy imitation.
In case the movie has to be edited down to even exclude entire sequences to get it on RUclips, this reaction comes equipped with BIG JIM SLADE! (Dah dah dah DAAAH Daaah da da daah)
I noticed fx guru Rick Baker in the credits. So that's how that gorilla looked so good. It's probably him in it, may even be the King Kong suit from the 76 movie.
It's still funny even with references lost. They only had a few channels back then, everybody knew the same shows & commercials.
The material was honed in front of a very 70's far out kinda crowd.
Yep, that was Rick. "Dino" was named after Dino de Laurentiis, the producer of _King Kong_ the year prior, with whom Baker had a slew of arguments. (Rick built the Kong suit for walking on all fours, but de Laurentiis insisted that Baker walk upright, throwing the balance of the heavy suit off and making it look unnatural.) Baker had previously worked with John Landis on _Schlock!,_ the poster of which you can see in the theater sketch; Rick built the suit but Landis himself wore it.
As a teen in the '80's there was this & "Amazon Women On The Moon" that hit around same time that were must-sees. Haven't watched reaction yet so couldn't tell you which was which, but that's how "intertwined" at the time they were. If you saw one you had to see the other!
✌🌎❤
Arsenio Halls scene was hilarious! There were a bunch of others, but his being fried by the toaster LOL!!
@@namco003 Ain't no fukn Thelma here!!!🤣🤣🤣
🤘😎
I have no idea what that movie is. But by the title I already know why mostly young men/boys rented it. Lol
@@DeathMetalKats Tbh, it's been so long since I've seen either, but if you weren't around back then they were sorta taboo, friend, & played late night on cable channels like Cinemax, AKA, "Skinemax"😅, so definitely had T&A factor for us adolescents! Was my Gens "Pornhub"!
🤘😅
Definitely hope Jen gives "Amazon Women" a go. Like "Kentucky Fried Movie" it's a mixed bag, but overall a fun watch.
Its a movie of extra ordinary magnitude you have my gratitude you have my gratitude.
"Take him to Detroit!"
"No! No, not Detroit! No! No, please! Anything but that! No! No!"
Fun Fact: This movie led to John Landis being hired to direct National Lampoon's Animal House (1978).
Detroit Fact: A running gag of the film is referring to Detroit as a hell on Earth. It was inspired by Detroit's very real negative perception.
Location Location Fact: The exterior shots of Dr. Klahn's (Bong Soo Han) lair in the "Fistful Of Yen" sketch was filmed at Yamashiro, a Japanese restaurant in Hollywood, California.
Lost In Translation Fact: In the "Fistful Of Yen" sketch, when Loo (Evan C. Kim) first meets Dr. Klahn (Bong Soo Han), the Chinese characters start speaking in Korean. Klahn says: "Sorry to Korean fans that we're talking random things in Korean, but someone asked me to speak in Korean, so I just have to."
See You Next Wednesday Fact: Is a recurring gag in most of the films directed by John Landis, usually referring to a fictional film that is rarely seen and never in its entirety. Each instance of "See You Next Wednesday" in Landis's films seems to be a completely different film. Landis got the title from Alan Gifford's last line in 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968).
The Rest Of The Story Fact: Originally, a wealthy real estate investor had agreed to finance this film. He backed out because he thought that the 10-minute promotional video of the screenwriters was too expensive. Kim Jorgensen agreed to produce this film, though he was primarily an exhibitor at the time and not a producer. He found the promotional material to be hilarious and secured most of the film's funding from fellow exhibitors. In its initial release, the film earned $7.1 Million dollars at the domestic box office. Considering its budget had cost less than $700K dollars, it was far more profitable than expected.
At the time, Detroit had one of the highest crime rates in the country
My advice is to watch Amazon Women on the Moon, Top Secret, Naked Gun trilogy, Hot Shots 1+2, Airplane 1+2 and Police Squad - they're all by the same guys who made Kentucky Fried Movie
Airplane 2 is not the same people.
Also, Rat Race and BASEketball as well. (and then that will lead to other movies starring Matt Stone & Trey Parker like Orazmo!).
now you need to see amazon women on the moon
Or "Groove Tube"
@@doughyguy2663 and tunnelvision
Bill Bixby (the headache commercial) played David Banner in the Incredible Hulk TV show in the 70s, and that was actually Tony Dow from Leave it to Beaver reprising his role as Wally.
The man in the gorilla outfit playing Dino the Gorilla was none other than legendary special effects master Rick Baker, who would do the special makeup effects for Star Wars and earn an Academy Award for his work on John Landis' An American Werewolf In London. He also played King Kong in the 1976 remake of Kong Kong with Jessica Lange and Jeff Bridges. Dino the Gorilla was nicknamed after King Kong producer Dino De Laurentis.
31:00 that was the actors that played on Leave it to Beaver also
Another great reaction video, Jen! 😁The Kentucky Fried Movie was the first film screenplay written by Jim Abrams and the Zucker Brothers, Jerry and David Zucker, would later go on to write and direct the comedy movies Airplane! and Top Secret!, and develop the Police Squad! television series that The Naked Gun movies were based on. It was directed by John Landis, who would go on to direct National Lampoon's Animal House, An American Werewolf in London, Trading Places, and Coming to America.
Wow haven't seen this movie in like forever. "This is not a charade."
He was Dirty Harry's partner in one of his later movies. It was a role he performed with extraordinary magnitude. You have my gratitude.
FYI; In the courtroom scene..That Was The Real Wally but not The Real Beaver. Great Reaction👍🏾💯👍🏾
"The safety catch on your son's rifle "
HBO had a behind the scenes on a Naked Gun sequel. They talked about their KTT past, showed old reels of their stuff. It's where I learned about this movie. Such a gem.
I bet the actors didn't know what was going on. They had no point of reference. Same with Robert Stack & Leslie Neilson they were playing it for laughs and were told. No, be serious. I don't get it.
Surprised you didn't recognize the writers, the makers of _Airplane!..._
Bill Bixby in the headache clinic sketch, was the original Bruce Banner in the _Incredible Hulk_ TV series; Henry Gibson speaking for the dead was very popular in the 1960s on the TV comedy variety show _Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In._
Rick Baker, who plays the gorilla at the beginning, is a very well-known makeup artist, specifically gorilla suits, and he won the Academy Award for best special make-up effects for the John Landis film _American Werewolf in London..._
The "Feel-Around" theater gimmick is making fun of similar things that were happening at the time. "Sensurround" came out in the 70's for movies like Earthquake and would use the big speakers to rumble the theater.
I was too young to see this in theaters but my older sister did; she said when it started with "the popcorn you're eating has been pissed in" everyone threw their popcorn bags to the ground :O
There was a whole genre of these skit comedy anthologies in the 1970s. Quality varies, but I would say this and Landis's "Amazon Women on the Moon" were probably the best. But there were also films like "The Groove Tube", "The Boob Tube", "Tunnel Vision", etc. One of the advantages of these films was that they could do jokes that would never get to TV. Like "Blazing Saddles", this could never be done today. This was also (strangely) the era of blaxploitation films, martial arts films, horror exploitation films, etc. And, even stranger, there were a series of soft (and hard) core musical films based on fairytales! For this see "Fairytales" (1978), and "Alice in Wonderland" (1976). In both cases the music was actually pretty good, as was the comedy. The 70s was a unique time.
I was just about to post and list those other sketch films. Jen should watch them all!
My friend starred in an adult alice in wonderland. It was a real movie and everything…….but with penetration.
The martial arts sketch was a direct parody of Bruce Lee’s ENTER THE DRAGON
And the lowest point in John Landis's career was during the making of Twilight Zone The: Movie where veteran actor Vic Morrow and two Vietnamese child actors were tragically killed in the early morning of July 23rd 1982 when the helicopter was flying 25 ft from the three actors decapitating Morrow and one of the children, the second child was crushed by the helicopter itself. And the subsequent films he made were to pay off his court costs when he and several others went to trial in 1986 for wrongful death charges, but were acquitted. You can actually watch the video footage that is too gruesome and heart-wrenching even shown in slow motion of the propeller blade decapitating the heads almost like the Abraham Zapruder footage of the Kennedy assassination.
So awesome. I don't know how many times I've seen it, but it's always screaming.
I saw this movie at the Drive in when I was 10 years old, I have loved it since and proudly own it on Blu-ray 😂
Cool reaction as always Jen, you enjoy the rest of your weekend sweetie and most of all, cheese and rice 🥰❤️
This is one of Tarantino's favorite movies.
OK, on Tubi there are three of my favorite movies from when I was a kid in the 70's that I would HIGHLY recommend you watch because they fit in so well with your theme for the channel:
One - Lazerblast,
Two - Gargoyles,
and saving the best for last
Three - Alligator.
I really hope to see these on the channel. I think Alligator has the potential for some great Cheese and Rice moments.
Omg...somebody on You Tube finally discovered The Kentucky Fried Movie. Well, done and great reaction.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Eating Raoul, Last Tango In Paris,First Blood,Creature is Horror sci-fi, Galaxy Of Terror
10:45 The black guy was John Anthony Bailey who segued into adult films in the 1980s and 90s as Jack Baker, performing both sexes and non-sex roles in his latter career until his death in 1994.
"Shit!" - somehow the funniest line in this film...
The Leave it to Beaver sequence had the actual Wally, but not the real Beaver. But then they did get the Mom for Airplane!
Jerry Mathers declined to star in this movie as he was concerned about his image. But he guest starred on "Married...With Children". I guess they offered more money.
In the late 70's and early 80's. There was a phenomenon called the Midnight Movies. Where movie theaters showed the same movies over and over again. With some movies gaining a cult status. Like The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Led Zeppelin The Song Remains the Same. Heavy Metal, a futuristic cartoon. All were big.
There were two other skit comedies you might want to see. The Groove Tube and Tunnel Vision. For a Kung Fu movie. I will suggest, Master of the Flying Guillotine.
I cvould be wrong, but I HEARD the Zuckers and maybe Abrahms wrote, or produced some of the SNL live actions sketches in the 70s. I can't find much about it, but that was told to me by several people.
12:27 Detroit was on an economic decline since the 70s. It's the place no one in America wanted to go, unless you already were stuck there. Also, this segment is a parody of the Bruce Lee movie Enter the Dragon. If you haven't seen that, check it out.
The popcorn you are eating has been pissed in, film at eleven.....great line!
So many great lines from this movie! Thanks for watching! 🎬
A very similar movie is Amazon Women on the Moon.
Also Abrams and the Zuckers made a lot of movies of weirdness such as Airplane
But for a truly weird experience try Meet the Hollowheads.
Need to watch more martial arts films? Well, Jen, if you love this movie, I promise that "Kung Fu Hustle" will amaze and amuse you.
This is where I learned what the capital of Nebraska was!
My favorite personal story re: this movie... When I was a teenager (late 80's) my friend and I loved this movie, and watched it often. A particular favorite was the "Big Jim Slade" joke. Well, one holiday season, we're in a school assembly for a band & chorus concert, and suddenly the choir starts singing the "Big Jim Slade song" and we both break up in hysterical laughter. Apparently, it's a traditional song called "Hanukkah Shalom" but we had no idea. We almost got kicked out of the assembly but we quieted down...
There's a few movies like this, if you can find them. 'The Groove Tube'(1974) and 'Can I do it until I need glasses' (1977) are a few skit movies I remember watching back in the 80's. I don't know how reaction appropriate they'd be, but you seemed to enjoy the humor, so maybe in your own time. Awesome reaction.
I also remember Tunnelvision...stoner humor!
Funniest movie ever made its basically a series of skits like a r rated snl😊😊
You Rock! Love this review ❤
Thank you so much!
I guess the ending with Danger Seekers and the immortal Rex Kramer was a bit too much for you to include, Jen? 😜And you didn't include the young couple having sex during the news broadcast at the end? And here I was looking forward to all of the "OHHHH, MMMMMYYYY'S" from you. 🤣
Wasn’t it missing the “Christ did a cow shit in here” scene too?
@@zombiTrout Yeah, that was another good one that Jen left out. 🤣
yeah.....nobody on RUclips is going to show that scene (Rex Kramer) and react to it.......they don't want to lose subscribers or tick someone off at Google and get their channel removed off RUclips.
Fun reaction
Dr. Klahn: The CIA thinks they can infiltrate the Mountain of Dr. Klahn!
CIA Agent: You can't scare me, you slant-eyed yellow bastard.
Dr. Klahn: Take him to... Detroit!
CIA Agent: No! No, not Detroit! No! No, please! Anything but that! No! No!
My favorite scene was also the feel around theater.
If you want to see some kung fu movies be sure to put
Enter the dragon on your list
Also Jackie Chan's first.
Drunken Master (1978)
Keep 😂😂😂😂
Film at 11.
Actual "Wally" (Tony Dow, who played him, anyway) from "Leave it to Beaver" was in the court scene, playing Wally again as a cameo. Bill Bixby (The Doctor in the headache clinic) is best known to me for playing Doctor David Banner in the great live action TV version of "The Incredible Hulk" from the late 70's.
Once you have watched this movie you can never watch Enter the Dragon without thinking of it.
No Rex Kramer 'Danger Seeker' 8-(
I saw this and couldn’t wait to see your reaction! I love everything about this movie, even the dark inappropriate stuff 😂 I’m so glad you enjoyed the movie! And the capital of Nebraska is Lincoln!
Same people did Airplane
Most of the commercial parodies here are real 70’s commercials: The housewife worried that guests smell something (“Christ, did a cow die in here?”) was from a Glade air-freshener commercial, “What’s our little skeptic doing now?” was trying to prove that fried chicken soaked up less Wesson Oil than regular oil (without the cat), and Bill Bixby’s parody on Excedrin’s aspirin-lab commercials is now “Sanhedrin”, a Jewish tribunal.
The martial art skit was the main feature, with the short skits before it being the pre movie films.
Film at elev ➳
Maryial Arts: The Shaw Brothers are #1. The Five Deadly Venomms and The Kid with the Golden Arms are their best kown films. Salute
You might recognize Bill Bixby, the actor from the Sanhedrin pain relief commercial, Jen. He played Dr. David Bruce Banner on the 1970s CBS television show, The Incredible Hulk.
Don’t give him a headache. You wouldn’t like him when he has a headache.
@@0okamino 🤣
I just rewatched Kung Fu Hustle yesterday. I highly recommend it for review.
Other films from the 1970s include If You Don’t Stop It…You’ll Go Blind and the sequel and Robin Williams first film Can I Do It… ‘Til I Need Glasses? Animal House spawned from John Landis many rip offs like Frat House.
Danke!
Thank you so much!
Detroit was kind of a poster child for crime-ridden, decaying cities in those days - and rightly so. I worked there then. Thus the movie jokes and the whole concept of "Beverly Hills Cop". It was the butt of jokes just like Cleveland was after the Cuyahoga River caught fire. Luckily, Detroit is vastly better now and most of the "grittier" portions of it are history. Now there's an excellent theater and dining district, sports venues. etc.
Of the sketch comedy anthology movies I've seen, I think Amazon Women on the Moon is the only one that can keep up with this one. The Groove Tube, Mr. Mike's Mondo Video, and Loose Shoes all have their moments. (I'm excluding Monty Python's And Now for Something Completely Different, Monty Python's The Meaning of Life, and Woody Allen's Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Sex But Were Afraid to Ask.) There are a bunch I haven't seen, such as Elephant Parts, Can I Do It 'Til I Need Glasses, and Movie 43.
The groove tube is also the funniest 🏆
Cemetary Man Used Cars,A Dirty Shame,Saturday The 14th
You needed to watch 'Enter the Dragon' first to really get a lot of these jokes since a large portion is a spoof of it.
So much fun to watch this with you! I haven't seen this since the early 80s, tops. There was another around the same time, "The Groove Tube".
Best film to start with comedy wise yes go for airplane and airplane 2..yes to naked gun and hot shots and hot shots 2....and not forgetting top secret🙂😉
Amazon Women on the Moon is a similar type of movie and it's very funny
Great reaction, you’re awesome 😎
Gotta see ENTER THE DRAGON.
THE LAST DRAGON, and BLOODSPORT. Fer some martial art films.
Great video, keep it up 👍
29:24 Don't say "this was unexpected", girl! You don't want to tempt the arrow shooter, now do you?
There is hot dog the movie. Possibly hamburger the movie, student bodies
The guy talking in the headache scene is in the incredible hulk
I saw this in the theater in 1978 (movies ran for a long time back then) with my dad and sister, I was 12, my dad laughed through the entire thing, my older sister was mortified to by the nudity and my dad finally had enough at the last sex scene a took us out. The newspaper ad just said it was funny, a riot, etc.
Fistful of Yen was a direct spoof of the Bruce Lee movie, Enter The Dragon
I’ll have to add it to the watchlist 🎬
Check out Hollywood Shuffle . Its kind of a skit type movie from the i guess mid 80,s with Robert Townson a very funny comedian.
i believe the first movie of this kind was the groove tube, which came out in 74
most of the humor is very topical, so i am surprised when anyone from this gen gets the humor
The main martial arts film is based on a real bruce lee film
I watch a lot of movies from TUBI
the writers went on to great success in police squad , naked gun etc
Now you HAVE to do Airplane.
I’ve seen it! You can check out the reaction on my channel 🎬
My favourite cult movie. Very far back. Surprise there are people reacting to it. You may not get many references as they are of the time. Many famous and to be famous actors doing cameos.
What happended to "Catholic High School Girls in Trouble"?
Rex Cramer….
Try " The Groove Tube" movie 1974.
another movie like this you might like is "amazon women on the moon".
Berry gordies the last dragon
The fighting movie is parody of Bruce Lee's enter the dragon
You might be the first reactor to skip the "Thrill Seeker" skit and I totally understand why.
A lot of the humor couldn't be redone today, especially THAT skit 🤣🤣🤣
See ' Top Secret ' Val Kilmer for similar wackery.
LOL never heard of this movie
The quentisential seventies spoof movie
Wish they still made skit-based movies like this. The last one I can recall was the The Onion Movie, from at least 10 years ago. But there's a handful of other skit movies from this era. Amazon Women on the Moon is the other one that is really popular, but there's ones like Troma's When Nature Calls that has some funny bits. SHOW ME YOUR NUTS!
Mmm... There was "Movie 43" a while back, but I think it was a bit too raunchy for me.
🤪😜🥸🌰🥜🔩
This movie predicted 4DX movies.
I was thinking the exact same thing
Have u seen Deep Throat?
What many people don’t see was this movie was created by the same people who created an directed AIRPLANE and THE NAKED GUN series with many other great comedies.
it's so absurd, it's hy-larious...
If you like this one, I suggest "The Groove Tube." Also there was a movie poster at the theater featuring the film "Schlock." It's John Landis' earlier film.
😎👍 Well, you've seen "The Kentucky Fried Movie" and you've seen "Airplane!" ✈ Logically, the next Zucker Zucker & Abrahams film to watch would be "Top Secret!" (1984) which in my opinion, is the funniest one of them all. It's a spoof on a combination of James Bond and Elvis Presley movies.
Yeah, Top Secret! might be my fav. Or BASEketball.
Danke!
Thank you! ❤️
