Synopsis: The Kentucky Fried Movie (1977)

Synopis: A movie that helped plant the seeds of Saturday Night Live and gave the Zucker brothers a foot in Hollywood's door, this long-revered television and movie satire combines sex and bathroom humor with timeless sight gags and slapstick. The uproarious film spoofs everything from television commercials, movie trailers, porn, and pop culture in general in a series of hysterical sketches. Infamous sketches include "Cleopatra Schwartz," a blaxploitation spoof featuring a sexy Amazon married to a rabbi; and the extended kung fu film parody "A Fistful of Yen." Raunchy humor and hysterical commentary on the media are served up with reckless abandon by the likes of Bill Bixby, Henry Gibson, George Lazenby, and Donald Sutherland, among countless others.

"Kentucky Fried Movie" was one tour de force in cinema for comedy and still continues is still effective. However even if it did pave the way for first and original "Saturday Night Live" then why was it in theatres nearly two years after the debut of the television show in question?
