Shout Factory will bring to Blu-ray director John Landis'
The Kentucky Fried Movie (1977), starring Evan C. Kim, Bong Soo Han, and Bill Bixby. Exact technical specs and supplemental features to be included on this upcoming release are unknown at the moment, but the preliminary release date set by the studio is July 2.
Featuring a cast of more than a few but less than a lot, this insane collection of comedy skits includes such now famous sketches as the Kung-Fu parody,
A Fistful Of Yen, and the legendary
Catholic School Girls In Trouble. Enjoy the future of moviegoing with the "Feel-A-Round" theater experience. See notable and highly respected actor Donald Sutherland as the clumsiest waiter in motion picture history. Watch such character as Cleopatra Schwartz and Big Jim Slade tickle your funny bone until it has to be removed surgically.
Written by Jim Abrahams, David Zucker, and Jerry Zucker, and featuring appearances by ex-James Bond, George Lazenby and The Incredible Hulk star Bill Bixby,
The Kentucky Fried Movie is the cult classic you've been waiting for! It's a virtual guarantee (not an actual guarantee) that you will not find another film with as many side-splitting moments of pure unadulterated hilarity as
The Kentucky Fried Movie.
