The listing, Val Kilmer TOP SECRET! Peter Cushing *For fans of Airplane Naked Gun Hot Shots has ended.
*see stock photo above*
"Top Secret" VHS (without original box packaging). This movie is one of the funniest spoof comedies around, a parody of WWII spy movies in which an American rock and roll singer becomes involved in a Resistance plot to rescue a scientist imprisoned in East Germany. Oh my god!... Soooo many jokes. Soooo Good!
In between the disaster movie satire Airplane! in 1980 and the hardboiled cop show parody The Naked Gun in 1988, the comedy crew of Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and David Zucker put together a picture that's as funny, or even more funny, as their other hits. Top Secret! sends up spy movies and cheesy teen rock & roll musicals.
Val Kilmer stars as swivel-hipped American rocker Nick Rivers, a sort of blonde Elvis whose secret weapon is Little Richard's tune "Tutti Fruitti." On tour behind the Iron Curtain, Nick strikes blows for democracy overtly and covertly, with his music as well as his espionage skills. In short, this is a very, very silly motion picture. Some great gags, including a subtitled scene in a Swedish book shop, and an inspired bit with a Ford Pinto that not everybody may get anymore. (The Pinto, you may or may not recall, was notoriously prone to gas tank explosions when rear-ended.) Seth McFarlane, eat your heart out!
