| The Kentucky Fried Movie | comment |
The Kentucky Fried Movie is a 1977 Sketch Comedy film directed by John Landis and written by Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker, based on their earlier work at the Kentucky Fried Theater. The film is affectionately remembered for its groundbreaking comedic style.The film consists of a variety of sketches parodying different film genres. The segment "A Fistful of Yen" parodies Kung-fu movies of the style made famous by Bruce Lee, and takes up over a third of the film's 83-minute running time. None of the other segments are longer than six minutes: they include "A.M. Today", a satire of morning news; "Feel-a-Round", a satire of movie theater stunts like Smell-o-vision; "Zinc Oxide and You", spoofing '50s high school educational films; and "The Wonderful World of Sex", in which a couple uses a phonograph record sex manual.Like all ZAZ works, parody is highly valued, and the fourth wall is almost nonexistent.note Literally! The production was so cheap that many of the sets were built outdoors without 4th walls or even ceilings so they could be lit naturally. Not to be confused with Kentucky Fried Chicken, though obviously it was the source of the film's title (the Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker comedy troupe was originally called Kernel [sic] Sanders' Kentucky Fried Theater). | |

| The Kentucky Fried Movie / int_127fc252 | comment |
Creator Cameo: Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker all have major roles in "Courtroom"—David Zucker is Sheldon Grunwald, Jim Abrahams is the on-camera announcer, and Jerry Zucker as The Beaver (literally). Beyond that, all three play the technicians in the final news sketch and David is the man in "His New Car", and they have a few other bit parts. | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed: John Fitzsimmons and Sheila Hamilton in Count Pointer Count, for James J. Kilpatrick and Shana Alexander ("Alexander"="Hamilton"), who were the participants in the "Point/Counterpoint" segment of 60 Minutes at the time. William Tregoe, who played Fitzsimmons, also played the Kilpatrick parody in Airplane! ("I say, let 'em crash!"). | |

The Cameo In That's Armageddon!, "Donald Sutherland as the clumsy waiter!" Not to mention Tony Dow, Bill Bixby, Henry Gibson, Jeff Maxwell, and George Lazenby. Singer-songwriter Stephen Bishop is the bearded man who's asked to "show me you're nuts". He would later contribute songs to John Landis' next film, Animal House; he gets a notable cameo in that film, as well. | |

Bilingual Bonus: There's a section in the beginning where Loo is signalling to Ada, Klahn is speaking Korean. Actor Han Bong Soo was asked to ad-lib some Korean, whatever he liked. Essentially, it's Han's ranting about how he's in a really silly film and the hardships of working in an American film industry. | |

Secret Message Wink: Parodied relentlessly. During Klahn's Korean speech at the fighters' orientation, Loo makes a series of winks and facial gyrations to his secret contact who stands about 30 feet away facing him at Klahn's side. There's no way such a display could be kept secret in a garden full of fighters and guards, but no one else sees it anyway. | |

Creator Thumbprint: While it's soaked in the familiar comedic anarchy of Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker, the gorilla in "AM Today" and the film in "Feel-Around" being called See You Next Wednesday are clearly John Landis inserting two of his own signature motifs into the film. The character names Rex Kramer (the subject of "Danger Seekers") and Steven McCroskey (the on-camera announcer in "Courtroom") were famously re-used in Airplane!.note Both were names of high school buddies of the ZAZ team. | |

World of Pun | |
| The Kentucky Fried Movie / int_86eea0e5 | comment |
World of Pun As with many ZAZ films, much of the humour is pun-derived. The "Catholic High School Girls In Trouble" segment has the following gems: a woman seductively asks a man to "show me your nuts," and in response the man makes silly faces and hand puppets, demonstrating his lack of mental stability. Two pornographic actresses are said to be introduced in the film in the credits - and a third has them both greet and shake hands with each other while in the nude. "Linda Chambers" is to recreate her classic role - she does a pencil roll across the grass. The courtroom scene alone has almost too many puns to list. The "Fistful of Yen" sketch opens with a nuclear explosion on the Isle of Lucy. Also counts as a Brick Joke, since the attacks on New York and Moscow referenced earlier by the newscaster are said to be connected to this event in the sketch. | |

The Television Talks Back: A TV news anchorman on a live broadcast apparently sees, and is distracted by, a young couple making out in front of their living room TV. As the action becomes hotter and heavier, the anchorman is joined by his colleagues and the camera crew, who also watch the couple intently. By the time the couple is engaged in full-on intercourse, the crowd in the TV is cheering wildly at the spectacle. | |

Shout-Out: Several members of Dr. Klahn's army are shown throwing hats at statues and knocking off pieces of them. This is a reference to Oddjob's use of his hat as a weapon in Goldfinger. Two references to The Wizard of Oz. During the fight between Loo and Dr. Klahn Loo splashes a bucket of water onto Klahn and he melts, saying "I'm melting, I'm melting". The final scene is based on the "Dorothy wakes up after returning from Oz" scene. Loo is lying in bed wearing a wig with other characters from the segment gathered around him. | |
