#73 in Mighty Jack's Top 100
Amazing Colossal Grade: Unlike Mooney in The Beatniks, Moon never threatens to moon anyone, though "I'm gonna Moon ya man" would have been a hilarious catchphrase here
Movie Pain: Medium - for Monotony.
Riffing: Wildly funny, very steady
Skits: Chuckle-Fest at best
A (somewhat) watchable film about people named, Toblerone, Strike, Trash, and Moon (aka Nosferatu), trying their best "Not" to escape from the Bronx. All these colorful characters are tailor-made for a msting and the gang pelt each and everyone with knockout quips: Especially the vampire woman -though the gang seems to love the laughing Dublone the best- And Henry Silva as the bad guy; who performs evil acts of "Disinfectation" (Hu?) with his silver garbed henchmen.
Though the host segments are somewhat lacking (Clay puts his mother in a home and we get to listen to more whining Pearl) M&TB's sparkle in the theater; as is the norm for season 7. The riffs lean frequently on music references, which continue right on through to the credits (a very funny gag where Tom sings a "Journey" song WHILE Crow bangs Mike in the head with his guitar).
Host Segments
Intro: Crow's charity auction loses money. Segment 1: Dr Forrester puts his mother in a home and Crow sets fire to the SOL. Segment 2: Crow learns about biofeedback. Segment 3: Men's night at the SOL. Segment 4: Dr. F brings in a cute kid to try and boost the slumping ratings. End: Toblerone laughs and then runs off with Dr F's mother. Stinger: Toblerone laughs.
