Plump Fiction

1997 · 82 min

A silly, fast-paced spoof that throws jokes at the wall with chaotic energy and little substance.

Directed by
Bob Koherr
Genres
Comedy, Crime
Tagline
From the producers who saw Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs & Braveheart.
Overview
Four stories intersect in this violent film parody. Exterminators dress as hit men and try to protect the wife of their boss, Montello. Meanwhile, the strippers at Montello's strip club, dressed as nuns, attempt to rob him. Tag-team wrestlers steal Montello's briefcase, thinking its contents are valuable. Finally, Bumpkin, running to deliver a script, loses a lot of the pages.
