Slapstick of Another Kind

ComedyFantasySci-Fi84 min

An affluent, glamorous couple are stunned when their newborn twins turn out to be deformed aliens whose linked heads make them the smartest children on the planet. Jerry Lewis and Madeline Kahn head the chaos as the parents at the center of the story, with Marty Feldman adding to the film’s broad, off-kilter comic world. The setup turns a wealthy family’s private shock into sci-fi absurdity, built around the twins’ unusual intelligence and the attention that follows once their extraordinary abilities become impossible to ignore.
