Spawn Of Trailer Trash

*1/2

Reviewed by: Angus Wolfe Murray

There is nothing wrong with spoof sketches. In fact, when they are bad, they are good, because the satire is about B-movie naffness. Unfortunately, it is not easy to make bad look funny. Sometimes it just looks bad. Like here.

The acting is dire and the jokes are single shot misfires. The best is the one about Sean Connery living as a homeless bum and trying to claim income support. Some of the others have potential, like Unemploymentman, a crime fighter of incredible ineptitude, and Detective Rock, a cueballed, black bearded PI, who doesn't talk, only sings to his electric guitar.

Without style, comic business looks a mess.
