Spaceballs 1987 PG, 96 min. Genre: Comedy / Sci-Fi / Adventure
Director: Mel Brooks Cast: Mel Brooks, John Candy, Rick Moranis, Bill Pullman, Daphne Zuniga, Dick Van Patten, George Wyner, Michael Winslow, John Hurt, Stephen Tobolowsky, Joan Rivers, Lorene Yarnell, Sal Viscuso, Jim J. Bullock, Leslie Bevis
This is a tongue-in-cheek parody of "Star Wars" in which President Scroob (Mel Brooks) plots the kidnapping of spoiled Princess Vespa (Daphne Zuniga). Dark Helmet (Rick Moranis) is the villain opposed by Lone Star (Bill Pullman) and Barf (John Candy) who is half dog and is his own best friend. This one is "Mel Brooks" all the way.
