Summary: Gross and Unfunny
Review: Incredibly crude, stupid and sophomoric send-up of movies and TV that would be done much better in Tunnelvision and Kentucky Fried Movie.GT is a series of unrelated skits, most of which are full of sex and drugs references which seem very dated. Probably the most offensive is a commerical from the Uranus Corporation and you can guess what that is about. One of the longer forms in this movie is a sketch called "The Dealers" which stars Richard Belzer, later famous for his role on "Homicide". Chevy Chase also appears briefly (since he was in Tunnelvision, I suppose that his early career consisted of parts like this.) GT opens up funny enough, with a group of apes surrounding a strange object, as in "2001". But the movie just degenerates into a never ending series of dumb skits, that are just gross, sick or stupid (a VD sketch featuring male genitalia is a good example). Another sketch featuring Koko the Clown as a kiddie show host who reads porn to children is not only unfunny, but is in extremely bad taste. There are enough naked women in this film to interest a typical drunken college student (like I was when this came out). Drunk or sober, I didn't find this movie to be particularly well done or particularly funny.

Summary: Okay, it's dated but........
Review: Ken Shapiro's movie is comedic genius. If you're old enough to remember Ed Herlihy's voiceovers for the Kraft Kitchen bits on Perry Como, the Kramp Kitchen hits home. The rock steady voiceover, the ridiculous recipe and Shapiro's frenetic hands are so funny that I have to turn away to catch my breath. Granted that this isn't a slick comedy by today's standards but it is very original and hilarious to the right viewer.
By the way, for the Kentucky Fried Movie fans, it probably isn't an accident that KFM came out three years after Groove Tube. Note to Mr. Shapiro - wherever you are, Thanks for the Laughs!

Summary: I've almost memorized it word for word
Review: Kramped Kitchen makes me laugh so hard that I start crying and can't breath. Since my buddy aquired this movie 15 years ago, I've probably watched it 20 times.

Summary: Laughs from a more peaceful time
Review: One of the funniest movies of all time. Complaints about the lack of dvd extras are pointless since the movie's budget was so small, we all are lucky to have the movie itself to enjoy. Is there any film out there that takes you back to the carefree days of hippiedom better than this one? Okay, I'm really nostalgic since I saw it at the age of 13 (along with Flesh Gordon), and was infatuated with the girl in the VeeDub for about 2 years. Also, I think I may be related to Koko the clown... Seriously, I somehow got the email of Lane Sahronson (the assassin, the cop and the movie's co-writer) and he was told me what a blast it was to make the film and that he wasn't in touch with Ken Shapiro any longer (too bad- I would love a sequel). Think I'll get my copy out tonight, crack open a Butz beer and 'move on up.' Groovy! --This text refers to the DVD edition.

Summary: Excellent!
Review: Outstanding! I've been looking for this for years and now I've finally found it here. It's a raunchier "Kentucky Fried Movie", if such a thing is possible. I believe that this is also a Zucker bros. film.

Summary: CUTE
Review: SAW THIS MOVIE WHEN I WAS YOUNGER. BUT, LIKE KENTUCKY FRIED MOVIE, THE BABES WERE MY MAIN MOTIVATION FOR SEEING IT AGAIN. I DID ENJOY THE FINAL SEEN THO, WHERE THE DIRECTOR DOES HIS SONG AND DANCE ACROSS PARTS OF NEW YORK'S FINANCIAL DISTRICT OF THE EARLY 70'S.

Review: THE GROOVE TUBE has been on my wish list of movies to own since I first saw it as a child. I guess I was around 12 at the time of my first viewing and the grainy quality of the video transfer gave the flick a kid of "forbiden fruit" quality. Upon finding it again all these years later I was surprised how well the thing holds up. Some of the stuff is pretty dated-that "Dealers" routine goes on for waaaaaay too long (although I must admit the punchline is just weird enough to make it worthwhile). Shapiro ends up with a highly influencial and successful film at the end of the day. Many of the skits are laugh out loud funny and give the audience enough credit to catch a D.H. Lawrence joke. There is a good bit of talent and creativity that went into this. Plus it was the first and one of the best of those "short attention span comedies" made so popular by the Zucker Bros... And this sucker is going to have a longer shelf life than that stinker. Mark my words your kids ain't gonna find that referential piece o' poop too funny in the coming years! But this one might just stick around. Don't expect it to turn up on Turner Classic Movies anytime soon. There are too many bush shots.

Summary: Sure it's raunchy
Review: There are some real laughs in this movie. Also some real clever ways to dress up body parts. I haven't seen it in a long long time, but still remember many skits to this very day. Think of it as a period piece humor-wise.

Summary: KOKO THE CLOWN
Review: This is a film that predates 'Kentucky Fried Movie' and may in fact be one of it's inspirations. If there was only one reason for me to recommend this film (aside from it's general raunch) it would have to be the genius of the KOKO the Clown sketch!!! The guy deserves an Academy Award for 'Funniest Five Minute Portrayal'!!!! Hands down the best part of the film and something to make you think about when you watch the likes of 'Barney' or god forbid the 'Teletubbies'!!!! The rest includes Chevy Chase ...etc...blah...blah... oh, and a singing puppet of a body part that even I could not belive I was seeing!!!!! Kooky stuff!!! We need more like it!!!!
