Amazon Women on the Moon Blu-ray Review
A must-see late-night tv set comedy spoof.
Reviewed by Neil Lumbard, December 22, 2020
Amazon Women on the Moon is a hilarious send-upwardly of late-night television and all of its wonderful hijinks. The sketch-comedy has a number of short films compiled together for a truly fantastic comedy feel that rivals the best of Sat Night Live (at times). With big-name filmmakers at the helm (including the likes of Joe Dante and John Landis), Amazon Women on the Moon is a must-meet slice of absurdity sure to please fans of classic 80's comedies.
The anthology features a number of celebrities throughout. The cast includes Arsenio Hall, Donald F. Muhich, Phil Hartman, Corey Burton, Michelle Pfeiffer, Griffin Dunne, Joe Pantoliano, Stanley Brock, Steve Forrest, Robert Colbert, Sybil Danning, Lana Clarkson, Steve Guttenberg, Rosanna Arquette, Kelly Preston, Russ Meyer, Archie Hahn, Belinda Balaski, Sarah Lilly, Carrie Fisher, and the great B.B. Rex (as himself). Even late-night video-vixen Monique Gabrielle (Penthouse: The Art of Massage, Scream Queen Hot Tub Party) makes a special appearance.
1 of the best shorts features David Alan Grier equally Don 'No Soul' Simmons and B.B. King (playing himself) in "Blacks Without Soul" � the one-act is first-rate as the actors delve in to their fun roles with free energy. David Alan Grier is almost the MVP of the entire production and manages to appear throughout the motion-picture show as his jubilant character � calculation several laugh-out-loud moments throughout the entire anthology. The comedy is dynamite.
Then in that location'due south the great "Two I.D.'southward" short. Jerry (Steve Guttenberg) wishes to accept out sexy Karen (Rosanna Arquette) for a engagement. Yet the date doesn't go as planned with Karen asks Jerry to present two identification cards to her so that she can send in a special request for a date-written report about Jerry (to observe out how he treats other women). Needless to say, comedy ensues as things don't actually "go down" as planned that nighttime.
The entirety of Amazon Women of the Moon is filled with endless cameos and highlights � at that place are too many to list them all. A great moment occurs when famed managing director Russ Meyer appears in "Video Date" as a salesman offering a young man a VHS made exclusively for his "lonely cocky" at dark. Then at that place'southward the advent of Star Wars' Carrie Fisher in the black- and-white "Reckless Youth" to add together some extra charm to the mix. Or how about the scrap in which a prostitute (Sarah Lilly) ends up romancing the Loch Ness monster (who is actually Jack the ripper)?
The editing by Malcolm Campbell (Keeping the Faith), Marshall Harvey (Modest Soldiers), and Bert Lovitt (Days of Thunder) is constructive throughout the compilation. Amazon Women on the Moon flows as if it is a normal film in some respects (as information technology never seems jarring when one short ends and some other begins). The quick-cut editing is effective and is a testament to the efforts of the squad of editors. No short seems overlong or tedious.
The original music score by Ira Newborn (Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, The Naked Gun 2 �) is silly good fun and adds to the late-night charm. The music is comical, offbeat, and well-suited to these outrageous short films. One could call the score a perfect match to all of the absurdity.
The cinematography past Daniel Pearl (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Boy) is one of the most essential elements. Without the consistency of Pearl, Amazon Women on the Moon may never have seemed so effective scene-to-scene. The visuals are a big chemical element of Amazon Women on the Moon. The cinematography does well at showcasing the production design by Ivo Cristante (Tremors, Child'due south Play ii) and the fine art management past Alex Hajdu (The Walking Expressionless, Mob City).
Some might experience the motion picture is a mess � they might even be right. Yet the comedy is superb and the experience is unforgettable. The script by Michael Barrie and Jim Mulholland (both of whom collaborated on writing Bad Boys and Oscar) is dynamite and full of classic lines. A seemingly endless array of comedic moments occurs throughout the shorts. One of the best elements is the old-school sci-fi yarn entitled "Amazon Women on the Moon" � which inspired the main-title of the compilation. The film-within-a-motion-picture show chemical element is interspersed by the other shorts and "commercial" breaks.
Amazon Women on the Moon works best as a spotlight on the filmmakers involved. Manager Joe Dante (Gremlins, Small Soldiers) brings to life some of the best sketches with "The French Ventriloquist's Dummy", " Hairlooming", "Bullshit or Not","Critic's Corner", and " Reckless Youth." Only "Roast Your Loved 1" manages to feel like a missed-opportunity � the rest of Dante'south efforts are tremendous and funny.
John Landis (An American Werewolf in London, Three Amigos!) scores some major laugh-out-loud moments with "Mondo Condo", "Hospital", "Blacks Without Soul", " Don 'No Soul' Simmons", and "Video Date." The comedy is exceptional and Landis delivers a unique way to each short. Any fan of Landis will want to experience his contributions.
Amazon Women on the Moon is a off-the-wall comedy fest. The other filmmakers add to the fun, too: Carl Gottlieb (Caveman) directs "Peter Pan Theater", "Pethouse Video", "Son of the Invisible Man", and "Art Sale." Peter Horton (Thirtysomething) directs "The Unknown Solider" and "Two I.D.'southward." Last merely non least, Robert K. Weiss (i of the directors backside Weird Al Yankovic's music videos) brings to life "Murray in Videoland", "Silly Pat�", " Video Pirates", "First Lady of the Evening", "Titan Man", and the championship- feature � "Amazon Women on the Moon."
Fifty-fifty though some of the brusk-films in Amazon Women on the Moon are less successful than others, the feel is one that is well worth taking. There are many laugh-out-loud sequences and this is such a zany product that one can't help but be entertained. With such a big grouping of filmmakers, actors, and artists involved, Amazon Women on the Moon proves to be a must-come across late-night spoof. Don't miss information technology.
Amazon Women on the Moon Blu-ray, Video Quality
Arriving on Blu-ray from Kino, Amazon Women on the Moon is presented in 1080p MPEG-4 AVC encoded loftier definition in the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:i widescreen. The release features a stunning presentation that showcases the short films with a remarkable degree of clarity. Throughout the entire presentation, each curt has exceptional detail and colour reproduction. The naturally filmic scan looks crisp and satisfying.
Given the diverseness of filmmakers involved in the production, one might assume that there wouldn't exist a consistency in the presentation-quality � yet the video is superb (as cinematographer Daniel Pearl delivers a tone suitable for each short). Given the fun album format, the video is sometimes filmed to look like television-productions � other times, onetime schoolhouse sci-fi, and fifty-fifty black-and-white film noir. No affair the style, the release by Kino is superb and utilizes its high 37.50 mbps bit-rate encode to deliver fans a satisfying presentation.
Amazon Women on the Moon Blu-ray, Audio Quality
The release is presented in DTS-Hard disk Principal Audio 2.0. The sound quality on the release is a perfect match to the elevation-notch video-presentation. The track never suffers from egregious bug of crackle, hiss, warps, clicks, and other audio-related deficiencies. The dialogue sounds remarkably well-baked, clear, and easy to empathise. The music score composed past Ira Newborn makes a splash as well: delivering superb clarity and loftier-fidelity. An excellent effort by Kino.
Optional English subtitles are provided.
