 DVD REVIEW: "JUNIOR"
While the film's concept wasn't as original as most people thought (Billy Crystal had already played the world's first pregnant man in 1978's "Rabbit Test"), and the film doesn't deliver many laughs beyond the concept of macho, "he-man" Schwarzenegger being pregnant, the film does have an overall charming quality.
Although the supplemental material isn't overabundant, and the picture quality isn't quite up to today's standards, fans of the film won't be disappointed with this DVD release.
Plot: A muscular medical researcher (Schwarzenegger) allows his colleague (De Vito) to test their new fertility drug on him, resulting in him becoming the world's first pregnant man.

An admirer of Barbara Streisand, he played her assistant in ‘Funny Lady’ (1975), and he did a cameo as an old gypsy woman in ‘Rabbit Test’ (1978) as a favour to its director, his close friend Joan Rivers.
His performance as a nasty lawyer in ‘The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean’ (1972) was lauded and he followed with John Hough's horror film ‘The Legend of Hell House’.
Then is 1985 he turned to comedy horror as the parodied vampire hunter in the film ‘Fright Night’.

 Encyclopedia: Rabbit Test (1978)
Rabbit Test is a 1978 comedy motion picture about a nobody guy who rockets to celebrity status after a cheap one-night stand leaves him pregnant.
Directed by Joan Rivers, Rabbit Test is about a night class teacher- Lionel Carpenter (played by Billy Crystal)- who has the worst luck with woman, remaining a virgin until his brash cousin Danny returns from the army and sets him up with the only woman desperate enough to sleep with him.
Rabbit Test's lack of success is due not only to its genuine lack of real humour, but also because its directed like a spoof- so there are a lot of unanswered questions.

 Rabbit Test Review (1978)
Not as awful as its reputation as a bad movie classic, Rabbit Test has enough funny bits for those with a strong sense of humour and who don't care about political correctness, because this film certainly doesn't.
All the fuss resolves itself in a parody of the Nativity, ensuring that Rivers has cheerfully offended just about everybody by the end - you can't say she's not consistent in aiming for her targets.
The seventies were a strange time judging by this.

 Mickey Rooney is willing to sacrifice for Americans - 2005-02-07
Applying that theory, I'm guessing that seeing Mickey Rooney's behind for two seconds would seem like sitting through a Joan Rivers film festival ("Rabbit Test," "Les Patterson Saves the World," "Lady Boss," "The Intern," "Tears and Laughter: The Joan and Melissa Rivers Story," "Wrestlemania II") on an endless loop for about six weeks.
According to LL Cool J in the movie "Deep Blue Sea," Einstein's theory can be explained like this: When one's hand is on a hot stove burner, two seconds can seem like two hours; when one's hand is on a hot woman, two hours can seem like two seconds.
If you are about to unfold the newspaper and read this as you pour a big bowl of breakfast Cheerios, you might want to drop the spoon until we're finished discussing Mickey Rooney's butt.
