Oh man, oh man. We just found my new favorite movie. Million Dollar Mystery stars a cast of dozen C-level comedians in a straight rip-off of It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World...and it's awesome. SNL alum Rich Hall co-stars as Vietnam vet Slaughter Buzzard so we watched it and it did not disappoint. When it was funny it was funny, when it wasn't funny it was so bad it's good funny. Tom Bosley dies from a bowl of chili and tells a room full of people about $4 million dollars he hid on 4 different bridges. They chase after it but along the way they meet wrestlers in a motor home, Kevin Pollak doing impressions, guys eating toxic waster, film noir style private eyes, industrial size shredders, all the while Eddie Deezen is just trying to get his rocks off with his new bride. I unabashedly loved this movie and there is also a bizarre piece of trivia about this film. There was a tie-in promotion with Glad trash bags where you could win $1 million if you followed the clues. Spoiler alert: The movie ends with a dude looking straight into camera and basically telling you to enter the contest. It's weird, but also beautiful. Watch this movie and listen to us talk about it. Enjoy!
