Master Pancake Theatre: ROCKY IV
Starts this weekend at the Alamo Ritz!
Advance tickets available here
Master Pancake gives a body blow to one of the most awesomely bad movies ever: ROCKY IV!
The biggest of the Rocky films at the box office, this one exudes the 1980s from its steroid-addled, Reagan-era core. This is the one where Rocky (Sylvester Stallone) single-handedly ends the cold war through the power of boxing. By the end of the climactic match in Russia against the evil Drago (Dolph Lundgren), the Russian people love Rocky so much that even the Soviet President (Gorbachev lookalike David Lloyd Austin) has to give our hero a begrudging 80'-style slow-clap.
Are you a montage lover? This movie contains THREE separate montages. The first montage is actually composed of montages from the first three Rocky movies: it's a META-montage! On top of that, you've got an amazing 80's fist-pumping soundtrack that one reviewer on Amazon aptly called "an outstanding workout CD", a cameo performance by James Brown and a WTF subplot about a sexy robot-maid that falls in love with Paulie (and, not surprisingly, out-acts Stallone).
