80s Movies Monday-Best of the Worst #7
Monday, Monday (bah da, bah da da da), can’t trust that day…It’s Monday again, and that means 80’s Movies Monday, Best of the Worst of the 80’s movies. Today’s pick is another from Bald Man…ahem, sorry…Cory.
UHF was released in 1989 and stars “Weird Al” Yankovic, Michael Richards, and Victoria Jackson. Cory discovered UHF in college, and he and his roommate would recite it almost nonstop. I’ve heard “red snapper” about 20 too many times.
Cory’s favorite bit is the mop scene played by Michael Richards before he was Kramer and before that other incident. Here, for your viewing pleasure, is the mop scene. (Cory was reciting along with it while we watched it.) Enjoy!

I loved the commercials in this movie. Spatula City, Ghandi II, hilarious! And Stanley Spidowski’s Playhouse. Fun!

Phil: Thanks for commenting! I only remember bits of this movie. The “Red Snapper” and “You so stupid!!” lines from the gameshow are the dominant memories there for me. I think I slept through the rest of it while the guys watched it. :D

Yeah Kerri, those were good memories too. This movie was fun though! The Weird One should have starred in more movies. I know I’d watch them.
I really loved the movie Real Genius. Val Kilmer was BRILLIANT!
