| 07.07.06 | Netflix | yay for Paul Bartel. I'm not really sure why I didn't know this movie existed until about a month ago... I wish there was someone I could blame for never volunteering this information or leading me to click the exact right combination of imdb links to lead me to its page but I guess the only person who I can possibly blame for that is god... so screw you, god. All my life I thought freakin Burt Reynolds and Dom Deluise were behind the whole cross-country race thing. It makes so much more sense knowing that it was really Bartel and Don Simpson. Anyways, fun fun movie, even though apparently 98% of the country looks like california. And it also has a cameo from pretty much everyone in the Corman stable... I'm sitting here thinking "Is that Marty Scorsese? Is that Sylvester Stallone?" yes. yes it is. On the crew side as well... Tak Fujimoto shooting, Chuck Russell PA-ing, Run Run Shaw exec producing, Michael Levesque art directing... names all over the place! I guess that was just Corman in the 70s... |
