Movie Madness

National Lampoon sends up Hollywood sky high!

A National Lampoon anthology of three shorts spoofing everything from personal growth films, glossy soap operas, and police stories. In the first story 'Growing Yourself', stars Peter Riegert as a confused family man who throws his wife out of the house in order for him to 'grow' a new path in life and raise his four children on his own. In 'Success Wanters', Ann Dusenberry stars as Dominique Corsaire, a young college graduate determined to succeed in life in which in a few days time lands a job as a stripper, then the mistress to a margarine company, inherits it when the owner croaks, and is then romanced by a Greek shipping tycoon, and ultimately the US president. In 'Municipalians', Robby Benson stars alongside Richard Widmark as a naive rookie Los Angeles policeman paired with a cynical veteran of the force to catch an inept serial killer (Christopher Lloyd).
