Call dispatch and get ready for the wildest ride in DC. That’s District of Comedy, fool! The zaniest bunch of ragtag misfits ever assembled must battle topless dancers, brutal kidnappers, the taxicab commission and more boneheaded hilarity to collect their fare and save their hides. Fifteen years before Batman & Robin, director Joel Schumacher had already perfected his ability to put together a top-notch, no-holds-barred WTF cast: the no-relation-to-the-Baldwin-brothers Adam Baldwin, the terrifyingly spastic Gary Busey, a synthesizer-wielding Bill Maher, the hulkazoid Barbarian Brothers and motherf-in’ MR. T !! And that’s not even mentioning Barney Miller’s Max Gail, legendary NYC comedian Charlie Barnett, Paul Rodriguez, Sanford & Son’s Whitman Mayo, the occasionally-Tony-Clifton Bob Zmuda or Irene Care as HERSELF! If you don’t want to see a cast like that star in an R-Rated early-80s comedy, check your pulse – you’re probably dead!
