| User ReviewRick HMaybe the funniest MST on DVD right now. "Son, it's been two months, and you haven't touched your hamburger!" |
| User ReviewMichael SAgain, this is the MST3K version, not the actual movie. Slows down in the middle. Painful singing from Kitty. (Meow!) I like Jimmy's stupidity chart. |
| User ReviewGregory WThe only way to watch this is with the MST3K guys. Melodramatic and hilarious. |
| User ReviewAdam RI've noticed more and more that low budget crime thrillers of the '30s and '40s made obviously middle-aged actors into high school students. This was a major obstacle to my suspension of disbelief, in a film that shouldn't have required it. Evidently released as a "parent propaganda" film. Hopefully no real parents identify with the wacked out, cartoonish lushes that pass for legal guardians here. |
| User ReviewEric PSaw this on MST3K. The plot centers around the laughable pop-Freudian premise that the main character, a middle-class high schooler, became a mob henchman (and accidentally shot a guy) because his parents liked to drink (keeping in mind this was in an era when people drank constantly) and would occasionally bicker mildly with each other, rather than the fact that he wanted money to impress his way into a nightclub singer's pants. I wish teenagers would still dress that formally nowadays, although it's obvious this "high school student" must be at least 30. |
| User ReviewDonna SThe reason this gets any stars at all is because it is freaking hiarious, even without the MSTies. |
| User ReviewThomas JA bad premise for a bad movie with a bad title. |
| User ReviewJustin E'how about a hamburger sandwich with full french fried potatoes garnish?' |
| User ReviewPrivate UNothing I could ever possibly accuse my parents of could stack against the clunky cinematic crime that is this film. Before daytime talk television popularized pop psychobabble, there was this film. I accuse it of THAT. |
| User ReviewPete C"When I accuse my parents and I killed them" BTW: Aren't we all happy in our work? |
