When I'm having a bad day, when my depression kicks in, when my anxiety won't leave me alone... I come to this video and skip immediately to 9:01

I actually saw this in the theater. My sister and I were pretty bummed about bad news and it was the only movie we didn't have to wait half an hour for, so in we went. We were the only people in the theater, and we talked about what was going on. Finally we just up and left, still crying and upset, and the theater staff took pity on us and gave us some cheddar popcorn to make up for the movie.

"I cant believe I went to Party City for this"-The title of my autobiography

What was it about bad 90's comedies that thought a wide angle lens automatically meant funny? Also I LOVED THE PROPS ALLISON

The Norm Macdonald interview is absolutely hilarious. Norm wasn't even being interviewed and it's funnier than anything carrot top has ever done LOL.

I remember hating this as a kid, and then being reassured that my hatred was correct as an adult.

That baby looks more like Chucky than anything else.

OH god, all the worst 90s bad movie tropes in one mess: - Big Srs Business left in the hands of wacky man-child - inventor or quirky, useless inventions - unlikable buffoon gets down to earth woman Just Because - obnoxious fish eye lens Also I'd give anything for Phelous to review this based on how you said he found it insufferable LOL.

That Norm MacDonald burn on Conan was one of the funniest things Ive ever seen in my entire life.

Carrot Top went to my high school and played in the marching band. His picture is up on the wall with the rest of his class.

The clip of Norm MacDonald hits a little differently now. Love seeing him at his best, it took him less than a SECOND to come up with that quip. What a brilliant mind for comedy.

Joel Hodgson is a way better prop comedian. The invention exchanges back in his MST3K days were pretty creative. Also, unlike Carrot Top, he wasn't constantly screaming to make everything seem more wacky.

I think the 'wacky inventor' crazy in 90s movies came about from the success of back to the future and Doc Brown's popularity. Dumb comedies wanted to cash in on that but couldn't think of a good reason for why they invent or what they invent.

Your dancing on the intro for this series gets me every time. It's perfection!

I laughed and inappropriately long amount of time at the milk carton joke.

Oh thank you for including the Norm McDonald clip.

I keep coming back to these older videos just to re-watch the intros. The music, graphics, the super cute dancing.

Jerry here, You killed me with the line "Even the DVD menu is a hot mess! What am I suppose to click on? How do I exit this movie?"

I think Alyson and Brad should do a bad movie game that is like horse and chicken combined, each one upping the ante until one of them bows out in disgust, shame, or apoplectic fury.

I literally had just started watching Neil Blomkamp's new short film, but as soon as this notification popped up... "Fuck this! This shit can wait! Allison has a new video!"

"Annd he stole my haircut." Lol

Imagine being the editor putting all those soundeffects in. I'd cry. And then start to drink.

I expected better from the director of Inspector Gadget 2 and Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2.

I am dumbfounded how Carrottop made a living as a comedian when he is one of the least funny people to ever exist. Its even more apparent when he is reviewed by Allison, one of the funniest people alive.

I’m willing to bet money that WWE actually forgot that they filmed those promos with Carrot Top.

9:01-9:05 is one of my favorite jokes!

Carrot top would make a terrifying slasher monster

The subtle insert of profanity in this narrative is very fitting and hints at the frustration of having to seat through this sparkling gem. Well done

The surfboard emergency brake could work, it'd have to be a giant flap that folds open from the front, obviously the hydrodynamics when folded up would be atrocious, but Carrot Top.

I've seen Carrot Top at our county fair a few times, he puts on a good show.

Anyone else sing along to the intro to Movie Nights? Yeaaaaa! Love your show!

I unironically loved this movie

Good work, as always, Allison

I love these reviews. Mad props.

I still can't believe you reviewed this lol A+

"That man's probably dead now!" Sadly, ...yes. Wrong guy died.

I remember watching this but I had forgotten until now

RIP DVD case of 'Santa with Muscles'

AHHHH! I love the shirt and tie and suspenders! you look so cute!!

The film is basically an expanded Carrot Top routine.

When I first saw this at the video store, I literally thought it was one of those Direct-to-Video movies and not a movie that was actually screened in theaters.

Love the suspenders!

So Allison, is this your Bushwhacked?

Hey the old guy who dies is the actor from Problem Child!! Big Ben!

I feel like Phelans reaction would have been veeerrryyy similar to the beginning of the Five Across the Eyes review hahahaha

Carrottop's even scarier now that he's buffed.

I remember seeing this at my local video store on vhs. I remember that movie cover.

Oh my God! I forgot about this review! I love this one!!!! Like tripping over an old friend!

the intro for this gets you pumped for #PremiumCannon. Especially that bondian silhouette dancing in the background.

I just saw the Conan interview with Norm Macdonald and Courtney Thorne-Smith, and it was really funny. To quote Conan himself nowadays 'This interview is not gonna air tonight'.

Damn, I'm glad that I wasn't aware that this movie came out back in 1998. Courtney Thorne-Smith was probably my biggest celebrity crush back in the Nineties, so I might have thought about going to see it...

new video...i am new to your channel and allready admire your vids 😅 looking forward to the next... and...i am afraid of CarrotTop

For many years I thought Carrot Top was the same person as Yahoo Serious.

At least it's pat had Charles Rocket, this movie had nothing, it was dead from the start, what a horrible experience.

Your hair are better than Carrot top Also comedy premise that were generic in the 90's come across as weird now

I remember trying to sit through this at the theatre but I couldnt.

8:32-8:40 I mean, it's also called "you can shit on the side of the road"

This is your magnum opus

Carrot Top of the Box Office! *chuckles*

Mmmmh delicious and smooth just like your theme song. Keep these coming👍

Lupa you pull off that hair way better than Carrot Top.

I'll take "Movies you misremember as being Pauly Shore movies" for 100, Alex. ....Also, spot on Phelan impression.

2:12 Hahaha. Allison, your hair is way better.

NIce new opening!

This came out in '98? It feels like it came out years earlier, likely just because it seems like the sort of thing that could only have happened between 1993-1995.

Loved this movie so God funny

"Good one, Allison!!"

I think I remember a local theater in my area playing this. No, I did not see it, at least not until much later like early or mid-2010s when I caught it on Showtime. Don't ask me why, please.

Dumb and Dumberer started similar, with Lloyd coming out of his own mother. Classy.

my best friend and i couldn't get through the first 30 minutes of Drop Dead Fred, i can't imagine us being able to get thought the first minute of this

For a moment I was like "Only starring feature role? What about In The Army Now?" then I checked and no, that was Pauly Shore.

This just in- for the past 10+ years Carrot Top has been comedian one-residence at Luxor Las Vegas and has been earning 13 million dollars a year... so... yeah I still wouldn’t trade places with him

I remember this movie as a kid. I enjoyed it when I saw it however, I am sure it hasn't age well for me. 😂

I don't know if I got like a VHS copy of this or if it was on tv when I was real young or what, but I totally remember watching this, if only for that beginning baby scene. Maybe seven year-old me just didn't know comedy or something, but the imagery of carrot top and his zany antics were appealing in a visual sense, don't really know if I laughed at it or whatever, but somewhat engaging in a ADD-riddled second grader sense.

Stripping a corpse because "well I need something to wear" is some textbook sociopathy.

Tried searching for "crazy old man will editor" jobs on Indeed... no hits.

11:02 - "That man's probably dead now." Yep. Actor Taylor Negron passed away in 2015.

Watching the trailer made question humanity

Holy shit, in theatres for THREE DAYS??? .....wow. That IS impressive.

11:20 "A sexy lady"? She has a name, Allison. That's Cindy Margolis, the most downloaded woman of the 90s. Show some respect. (This is factually accurate, but also a joke. Please read with the same presentation as your show.)

I enjoy this movie When im drunk

At least we know this years christmas episode

"ive got a break" thats not how that works. that's not how any of this works.

Love the new intro!

Carrol Top gives me the uncanny valley :s

"I bet the board is spelt B.O.R.E.D"

I am doing a tabletop RPG with an 80s cop show theme. :D I wish I could get this theme for that someplace to use in that session!

I felt like this was a D-tier Ernest script that Jim Varney said "No, thanks." and they reworked it for Carrot Top.

Totally forgot this movie existed. Sure there's a good reason for that.

You know, Carrot Top and Yahoo Serious should have done a movie together. If they had set it on a high-tech speed boat, we'd be saying "Oscar-winning Carrot Top".

you want to know a carrot top fact, he has a 100 million dollar contact in Las Vegas

No, your haircut looks better than Carrot Top's.

5:50-5:58 That could describe most of Troom Troom's and 5-Minute Crafts' DIY crafts! In fact, I think this movie might be the inspiration of all their crafts.

His character seems a lot like Pauly Shore, Yahoo Serious, Ernest P Worrell and their man-child godfather, Pee-Wee Herman. The plot sounds lifted from The Jerk.

Damn, Norm is a fucking savage :o

you rock it better.

My father used to use this movie as a form of punishment if I've got bad grades in school

The film would still have more than a fair share of problems, but I think you summed up the biggest one perfectly: Our lead here just isn't a sympathetic character. Compare Chairman of the Board to, say, The Nutty Professor. I'm using the remake since it was closer to CotB's release, but either one could work here. Like this movie, The Nutty Professor featured an eccentric genius with a talent for invention, but it was far better received by critics and audiences alike. While there are plenty of different factors like the particular style of comedy, I think what ultimately separates CotB from it on the most important level is that the Professor was a likable guy. When he got nervous in front of his crush, it was endearingly awkward. When he got excited talking about science, Murphy's energy and charisma in the role made it feel like we were watching a person with genuine passion for their work, and you could get excited with them. When people mocked him for his weight or his lack of confidence, you empathized with him about how low it made him feel. He was clumsy, kept finding himself in bizarre situations, and had plenty of silly quirks, but at his core he was someone that you could relate to and who you wanted to see succeed as a result. Here, there's none of that. The lead's only real character trait is that he's eccentric, and most of those quirks just make him look like a dick. There are never any moments in the movie where it feels like they're really trying to form a connection between him and the audience. Throw in the fact that they rely almost exclusively on prop humor, and it's easy to see why he (and the film) fall short of other movies with eccentric scientists like Sherman Klump or Doc Brown.

What is most depressing about the thought of this movie is how many people who I like who pop up in it, and people who had careers at the time! Anyway I adore Courtney Thorne Smith for Melrose Place, but boy they must have had something big on her to rope her into this...

Scott lived down the street from my parents in Florida. I was disappointed that the other Scott Thompson didn't live down the street.
