The Kentucky Fried Movie
The hottest, most out-of-control movie ever to stagger onto the screen!
Directed by John Landis
Produced by United Film Distribution Company (UFDC), Kentucky Fried Theatre
A frenetic, irreverent sketch-comedy assault that weaponizes absurdity and parody to skewer media, genre conventions, and surveillance anxiety.
A series of loosely connected skits that spoof news programs, commercials, porno films, kung-fu films, disaster films, blaxploitation films, spy films, mafia films, and the fear that somebody is watching you on the other side of the TV.
