Was this the first National Lampoons?


Wonder why I've never heard of it

Probably never heard of it because it wasn't a movie. It was a stage show, and they recorded a performance of it on video. It was never released, but I think it must have aired at least once, as the copies that are floating around (ebay and the like) are really bad, as if taped off the air using a first generation VCR. While it may not be worth your time to hunt one down, it is VERY worth your time to pick up the CD of the show, as it is phenomenal! John Belushi, Chevy Chase, and the incredible Christopher Guest are all featured.

It was originally filmed to appear on HBO. The masters were lost and it never aired. J2 Communications found the masters when downsizing National Lampoon and released it on video directly through themselves for a while.
