Regarding humour, "Blazing Saddles" was excellent, but the funniest western (for me) was "Evil Roy Slade"I saw this around 30 years ago on telly in the U.K. and have been trying to find it ever since.
I couldn't get it in England and finally managed to order it from the 'States'. (The postage cost more than the video.) I then had to pay to convert it to U.K. VHS format and it was worth every penny.
The film started out as a 'pilot' and never got any further.
It stars John Astin, (Addams Family) as a phsychotic bank robber and also features Mickey Rooney, Henry Gibson, Edie Adams, Dick Shawn, Dom DeLuise, Pamela Austin, and Milton Berle.
There's a whole catchphrase cult in the U.K based on some of the scenes in this film.
I was really pleased that, having finally got my hands on a copy, it was as funny as I remembered it.
Americans. You should be proud.
"Enough Warmth"
P.S. After spending years tracking down the damn thing and getting copies done for all my mates channel 4 showed it the week after.
P.P.S. So it goes.....
P.P.S. Please try and see it.
