Enredo
Você sabia?
- CuriosidadesJohn Landis raised the money to make this movie from family and friends. He originally wanted to make an underground porn movie, but abandoned the idea when he found out he would have to work with members of the underworld.
- Erros de gravaçãoAfter demanding his ice-cream, as the ape walks toward the cinema screen, the poster to his right changes completely. Then, as he takes the little boy to the toilet moments later and leaves after; the poster again changes, this time from The Animal World (1956) to King Kong vs. Godzilla (1963) and then to, together, The Blob (1958) & Dinosaurus! (1960).

John Landis's first movie may be as good as anything he made. "Schlock" falls in neatly with other 'progressive' US comedy movies of the early 70s, which kicked around genre conventions and added a new frankness in language and toilet humour to US film comedy vocabulary. (Others like this were sketch comedy flicks like Landis's "Kentucky Fried Movie"; plus the Mel Brooks and Woody Allen movies of around the same time).
What sets this one apart is its sustained comic atmosphere, which is goofy, laconic and giddy. Set-pieces - like the 2001 parody, the bar scene where the monster 'Schlock' observes a Jose Feliciano-like blind musician playing a piano boogie and ends up joining in, and a very funny scene where the allegedly fearful Schlock goes into a cinema to see a horror movie, and is terrified - all come off perfectly.
Some beautiful bits of background business too - the hippie in the background of the 2001 scene, just ignoring the portentous foreground action while eating his frozen custard is worth a look. This is just a really, really funny film.
