Two questions

1) Is that really Robert Guillaume's voice when his character sings in the restaurant? I know Guillaume has a very good singing voice, but it also appears he's lip-synching there (probably for production purposes, if it's really him).
B) For those who have this on VHS, after the film did you notice about five minutes of an old episode of "Mystery Science Theater 3000" on the tape? I don't think my VHS is a bootleg, but I was surprised to find part of another film on the tape after the movie was done. And what movie is it they're skewering, anyway? (OK, that's three questions.)

Regarding first question, the answer is yes. Before he became a screeen actor, and interestingly enough, this movie was his film debut, he was performing singer and even appeared on Broadway in 60s.

In regard to the second question, I really don't know a lot about VHS bootlegs, but it's comically ironic that you saw footage of the Mystery Science Theater at the end of this lousy b-movie. It's usually the terrible bomb movies like Super Fly TNT that those three guys devour into pieces!

Thanks very much for your response! I could see (or, rather, hear) Robert Guillaume as a singer because he has a terrific voice. As for the tape of questionable origin, it adds to the experience.
