The box boasts, "Guaranteed to offend everyone!" I suppose it might have in 1984. It doesn't today, but watch it anyway.
That 4 out of 10 I rated it is heavily padded. The few clever sparks of comedy are obscured by the other 80 minutes, a shameless parade of stereotypical nonsense. Not much effort went into the film. Not even a spellcheck: the word "TESTACLE" blinks on the screen. So that's what you're getting into. A couple hearty laughs, a few chuckles, and the rest is a conventionally outrageous humdrum.
It's a hodgepodge of humorous vignettes which require little concentration on your part. So go for it. The baby alligator sketch is great.
