Coming Attractions
Comedy84 min
Presented as a string of fake coming-soon previews, Coming Attractions turns the movie trailer into the joke, hopping from one spoof to the next as it targets war pictures, celebrity biographies, sex comedies, and Hollywood hype. Bill Murray is one of the many comic faces in the lineup, with Buddy Hackett also turning up as the film riffs on titles like The Howard Huge Story, Skate-boarders from Hell, and The Invasion of the Penis Snatchers. Instead of following one plot, it moves through a parade of short setups and punch lines, with the ads, announcer patter, and come-ons becoming part of the satire.
