Aro Recommended Comic Strip Presents: The Bullshitters / The Yob

 

UK 1984, 92 minutes
Dir. Ian Emes, Stephen Frears
Rating: [M]
Genres: Comedy / Cult TV, Spoof, Punk

 

Aroview: THE BULLSHITTERS A cute parody of the TV cop show “The Professionals” with Keith Allen and Pete Richardson as sexy, maverick detectives ‘Bonehead’ and ‘Foyle’ working for the guv’nor (Robbie Coltrane) whose daughter has been kidnapped.

THE YOB is an inspired satire in which a scientific accident (parodying Cronenberg’s “The Fly”) trades the personalities of a pretentious music-video director (Keith Allen) with a football hooligan. Gradually they succumb to each other’s traits, with embarrassing (and bloody hilarious) results.
