Once a month, comedian, star and co-founder of Kids in the Hall, comic Kevin McDonald will introduce a film handpicked from the archives of comic history.
The Kids in the Hall feature debut sets its comedic sights on just about everything: smug advertising executives, inane talk shows, corporate greed, the overmedication of society, fads, miracle drugs, yes men, and creepy cab drivers who freak out customers with elaborate discussions of animal pornography, grunge, and the quiet desperation of the common man.
This version features 20 minutes of never-before-seen footage including a completely different ending from the theatrical release and a new character played by Dave Foley that had to be cut when the ending was changed.
Please note: this version is from Kevin McDonald’s personal collection and is not a high-quality transfer.
