Pray for the Wildcats

I thought Andy Griffith was unbelievably funny in this movie when he made an indecent proposal with a $20.00 Bill to a young couple thinking that they would actually agree to take him up on his offer!! It was amazing to me to see Andy Griffith act like such a twisted, dirty minded deviate who displayed violent sour grapes when he did not get his way. This movie was so funny and enjoyable because it was incredibly ridiculous with all its funky chemistry of Actors,Characters and the plot all combined to make a movie that me and my friends have been poking fun at for many years now. I often recommend this movie to people just because I want to see the look on thier faces and laugh when they see such a odd mixture of Actors and the Characters that they played in this flick.

An ok movie about a few executives going to Baja California. Griffith plays a somewhat sadistic boss who orders his execs to go to Baja with him on dirt bikes. The shirts they wore looked like Federation shirts, without the emblems. Too coincidental to just happen.

The coolest video store in the world, Movie Madness, has a VHS copy of this film here in Portland, I rented it one night a few years ago and was stunned at the wondrously awful hilarity it contained. The sight of Andy Griffith trying to erase his good guy image by hassling a young couple in a Mexican cantina, droning on about "hippies", Marjoe Gortner and his "main man" speech, Shatner and Robert Reed, at one point, having a conversation about what to do with Griffith, which just sounds like Captain Kirk and Mike Brady having a tete-a-tete. But the capper is Angie Dickinson doing absolutely NOTHING. She's supposedly married to Robert Reed, but having an affair with Shatner, yet there's no evidence of it, at all. Such a shame. GO find this film, have some friends over and soak up the bad-ness. - mh

I agree with Teresa. This movie is a cheesy. But, on the other hand, I thought Andy Griffith did a fine job of being a bad guy for once. William Shatner, of course, played the part of William Shatner, but then, I just like him because he's Captain James T. Kirk of the starship Enterprise. Robert Reed was pretty good, too, and if you see this film, check out the interior of his house--I swear it's the same house as the one in the Brady Bunch! And sure, the film is completely dippy, and the plot's weird, and the effects are royally hand-made, but I still think this is a film worth watching, if only for the interaction between the well-known television personalities. Besides, where else do you get a chance to see William Shatner referring to someone else as "The captain?" The don't make 'em like this anymore...maybe that's a good thing. But see it anyway!
