The world's best and worst movie riding the Animal House wave of the early 80's was a little piece of work called Midnight Madness. I like to call it that because that was the title. The plot is simple to follow A scavenger hunt across LA by 5 (why five?) teams, each wearing the same colored sweatshirts, driving vehicles with corresponding colors. And each team going to different LA landmarks with clues to send them to another location. The movie had Stephen Furst of A.H. fame, Eddie Deezen (Eugene from Grease), David Naughton (American Werewolf in London. Awesome.) and a very young, snotty pre-Family Ties Michael J. Fox. It's an extremely lame but very funny flick.
HBO used to play the crap out of it back in the day, and now you don't even see it anywhere on TV I had to buy it from a movie club for a horrendous price. Sometimes I get mad at cable for forgetting about me, and sometimes I feel sad and neglected like I did when my parents had cable babysit me when they were out at swinger parties....yeah I said it!
