I love this movie. To this day, I've only met one other person who has ever seen it and he's my roommate. Please... all you One-Eye Jimmy freaks out there, come out and play!
"Are you in the army?"
"No man, I just have short hair."
yay! some one else out there!!
"Why am I Mr. Pink?"
I loved this movie it was filmed in my hometown of Youngstown Ohio!!! It's funny because when you watch the movie your like "Oh my God that's Creed the Cleaners that's only like 2 miles from my house!"
"Hey Big Bird, ready for the counting game? Count the shells suckaduck"

I think you might be thinking of a different movie. This one was shot in Brooklyn, NY. Red Hook, actually.
"Are you in the army?"
"No man, I just have short hair."
hey i got this film also. it is so random and my favourite part is at the start when joe head is talking about his grandfather and the yuppy. a totally great film, not a great story line, but some good actors and some brilliant lines.
reign in requiem
yes, i thought nobody has seen this either.
"i'm a barishnikov"
"do u own a library card"
-no
then your a moron
goddam i need to see this movie
why the *beep* isnt it out on dvd yet
"These Pretzles Are Making Me Thirsty"
- "Micheal Richards - Seinfeld"
Finally!!!! Other people who love this film! I stopped checking in here because it was so depressing!!! When the heck WILL they put this on DVD? I have been dying to get a hold of a copy it's been so long since I've seen it! I can't even find a VHS copy! It's so freakin' great! I always assumed that The Big Lebowski borrowed heavily from this classic, more of an homage than a rip off though. Especially with using some of the cast. It really is a shame it's so hard to find! It's so freakin' funny! Just reading "There was no beer...no beer" I'm breaking out in hysterical laughter as I'm typing this! "And no cable!" LMFAO!!!!! Okay I'm back...still laughing...though! LOL! This is my favorite comedy of all time! We should bug the DVD people with a petition or something. I have no idea what is taking them so long. There are a lot of famous people in it, albeit independent movie people but still.
If I had a nickel for every cigarette your mom smoked, I'd be dead.
If you want a DVD, then you should probably petition Cabin Fever Entertainment. I think they're the ones who have the rights.
I still have my pre-viewed VHS copy from when I worked at Blockbuster.
-Hey boss, this movie hasn't rented in six months and the last person to rent it was me, before I worked here. Can I buy it?
One of the only good things to have come from that time in my life.
"Are you in the army?"
"No man, I just have short hair."
dig it! i saw this movie when i was visiting my sister in the u.s., in 1997 i think (we rented it)....i liked it so much i was gonna buy it when i got back to canada but it never made it up this far....yes, it's an obscure little film, but a very engaging and charming one! glad to see there are a handful of people who enjoy this gem.....
shareHey I just got lucky and was able to purchase a VHS copy off of Amazon for $1.99 plus shipping! YAY!!! I can't wait to show my friends! I tried to buy it before with no such luck. Glad to get such a sweet deal!
If I had a nickel for every cigarette your mom smoked, I'd be dead.
Joe Head was a freakin' riot! How could anyone ever rate this movie less than nine stars? I want to see this movie again and again!
My favorite line... "Disco's Dead? Why didn't anyone tell me?"
I own it on DVD.. it's everywhere. lol. Well, maybe cause i'm in UK, it might be more popular here or somthing.. I dunno. Try getting it on amazon. They somtimes have free delivery as well, (On UK Version its free delivery on nearly everything. lol).
"Total F!!king Silence! Two Can Play At That Game!"- Steve Buscemi (Fargo) BIGGEST FANshare
"Everyone takes a beating.. Even the mailman" - Ray Liotta (Goodfellas)
"Walk Down The Right Back Alley In Sin City.. And You Can Find Anything.." - Mickey Rourke (Marv, Sin City)
Do not buy this from the UK if you're in the US or Canada. It will not play on your player, despite the fact that it's Region 0. It is PAL, and our players require NTSC.
Trust me, I finally scored one, and damnit, it won't play. Fortunately I have it on VHS.
It is ridiculous that this is not available in the US.
i love this movie its so underrated and unknown it makes me want to scream i think everyone should see it its hilarious and the whole there was no beer thing is the funniest line lmao and ed is like "oh my god" its so funny
sharethis movie needs to be released on DVD...i have only met a few other people that i could even recommend it to without having their eyes roll back in their heads...need more!
shareI've got it on DVD, but that might be because I'm in the UK.... it was really cheap too... But theirs no extra features..... :(
shareI am a huge fan of this movie. I bought it back in 94 right after it came out never seing it first. I've since watched it 100's of times. My favorite linein the whole movie has come right after Junior's glassess get broken and he utters the line "What am I going to do with your old glasses? These are subscription, man"
Strictly For The Tardcore
i have just bought it, on impulse after seeing in the bargin bin in my video store! purely on the basis of who is in it (buscemi, turturro!) i've got my fingers crossed its a gem! will be back on once i've actually watched it...
sharegreat lines, great characters.
"We alomst lost Magoo" is such a funny line that has me laughing now. Someone wrote that in another post, and it took me a second to remember the line, cuz it's said at the end of a scene and we don't actually see Junior say it.
