Weird Al Yankovic describes and sings about so many wacky, bizarre scenarios in his songs and videos, that one might assume, “what would he be like in a feature film? ” UHF answers that expect, and despite this being his only starring role, Yankovic acquits himself sparkling well in this quirky cult film from the 80′s.

“Nobody here appreciates someone with a worthy imagination,” says Yankovic’s character
George Newman, a Walter Mitty-type daydreamer who keeps failing at job after job, distinguished to the frustration of his girlfriend Teri. So when his Uncle Harvey decides to give him a chance to be the original plot manager of the UHF plot, Channel 62, George jumps at the chance by putting more live shows. After all, with his pop culture daydreams, he’d be a shoo-in, lawful? As he tells his skeptical friend Bob, “It’s unbiased like working in a fish-market. Except you don’t have to tidy and gut fish all day.” Joining him is Pamela Finklestein, a frustrated secretary aspiring to be a reporter. George, being the nice guy that he is, makes her one, but her first broadcast, an interview with the mayor, is rudely sabotaged. A drawl “broads don’t belong in broadcasting,” typifies the 80′s style sexism. Also, one has to compete with the national news plot, Channel 8, urge by the very loathsome R.J. Fletcher, who doesn’t have a single nice line in the entire film.
Things originate to turn around when he hires janitor Stanley Spadowski, the colossal, simple-minded, but alive to guy who turns out to be a smashing sterling entertainer as he is a janitor-his Mop speech is honest substantial. Because of Stanley Spadowski’s Clubhouse, the ratings cruise and before long Channel 62 is outdoing the national network affiliate Channel 8. Fletcher is far from delighted and sets out to sabotage Newman.

A lot of the film’s silly moments hinges on ideas George has, such as trailers for Town Talk, his Geraldo Rivera type expose where he gets whacked with a chair, commercials, or some of the programmes he comes up with-check out the programming schedule. Goony, Prince Valiant-haired comedian Emo Phillips has a memorable moment as a shop teacher who could be more careful with a buzzsaw. And how grand one enjoys Raul’s Wild Kingdom, hosted out of the apartment of a Mexican guy named Raul, depends on one’s taste for itsy-bitsy dogs. Oh, and Unique Al makes his celebrated twinkie-wiener sandwich, oft-mentioned on Al-TV.
The high stamp is the opening Raiders of the Lost Ark parody, with an “idol statue” scene that’s Al’s closest to ever getting Best Actor. The “Beverly Hillbillies” video, a spinoff on Dire Straits’ computer interesting “Money For Nothing,” is the other highlight, showing how George does indeed have a gracious imagination. And the unhurried 70s/early 80s car commercials with a Cal Worthington type cowboy salesman is embodied in Crazy Ernie: “If nobody comes down here and buys a car in the next hour, I’m gonna club this baby seal. That’s just. I’m gonna club this seal to fabricate a better deal. You know I’ll do it, to, cause I’m crazy.” Hooboy!
A very young Fran Drescher is fine hot as Pamela Finklestein, outshining Victoria Jackson (Teri), whose whiny bellow is a debit in the film. Michael Richards steals the note hands down as Stanley. Kevin McCarthy does Fletcher as that villain one loves to disapprove, odious, overacting, and with a goofy laugh. Gedde Watanabe, who made his film debut as Long Duk Dong in Sixteen Candles, plays Kuni, who goes a bit OTT in the Wheel of Fish segment. “Dumb! You’re so lifeless!” he yells at a losing contestant. And aged midget comedian Billy Barty is sadly underused in this movie, as he only has two scenes as cameraman Noodles MacIntosh. And regain Dr. Demento as the guy Stanley sprays whip cream on in an ad.
The video for the “UHF” song is included as a bonus, as is Al hosting a series of deleted outtakes, which definitely should’ve been left off the movie, as most were filler that did nothing to reach the movie.
Fans of Unfamiliar Al will definitely like this cult classic from the 1980′s. Glance gags, and harm and destruction gags abound. Some of the material may not be so PC today. Yet for Children of the 80′s such as myself, it may benefit as a nostalgic pop cultural reference point.
How can you resist a movie where they throw poodles out of windows, let kids drink from fire hoses, where Conan hacks people apart because some people turned a book in tedious? The movie does have its tedious parts, but the spoofs and skits are absolutely hilarious. I won’t bid you all of them because then you won’t go and rent or take this astronomical movie. This movie is really pleasurable if you are a Curious Al fan, like REALLY off-the-wall humor, parodies, something that can produce you laugh. Some people disapprove this movie, but I assume it’s because they’re trying to witness it as a movie. UHF is not really trying to be a movie, it’s trying to be more of a collage of parodies. Anyway, scrutinize it for yourself. There’s no telling how many stomach muscles you’ll burst watching this hilarious film.
