call e d T li e Kentucky
Fried Theater Director
J o h n L a nd i s saw t it e
young men and decided
to feature their antics in a
film, The Kentucky Fried
Mm ia.
It was an irreverent
lampoon of television,
coming attractions and
kung-fu movies That
kind of parody continued
in further group efforts hv
the three in such films as
Airplane, lop Sat ret and
77/e Naked Hun From the
l-’lles III I’ulict' Stpilld, the
last of which was based
on a short lived television
series that was a deadpan
and outrageous parody of
crime dramas such as
Dragnet
|i rrv went on to diret t
other features, such as
last summer's box-office
smash ('.host Abrahams
ft as also directed other
films and gone into pro
ducing David Zut ker has
stii( k to his slapstick
roots vs ilh his most recent
I lort. the X.iked (lun
II t he Smell ol Four.
The following are ex
cerpts from a phone inter
view with David Zucker
before the release on X.i
ked Hun II
DDL Do you think I’olii e
Squad would he suer ess
fill on TV now7
David Zucker No. it still
needs a laugh track I'V
humor needs rhythm On
TV it's joke-laugh-joke
laugh In the theater you
have the audience laugh
ing
CJDK Will there fie a third
Xaked Hun movie7
Zucker I don't know It
took so long to do this
one Maybe if we can
come up with a good
idea
ODH Did you always
want to 1m- a filmmaker?
Zut ker No In college 1
did historic al research
and went on archaeologi
cal digs and some other
things that didn't have to
