	UHF (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		UHF (also known as The Vidiot from UHF in Australia and parts of Europe, and Los Telelocos in Mexico) is a comedy film made in 1989.
		After much pleading from fans, the movie was rereleased in Europe and North America on DVD in 2002 by MGM, and in its debut week it became a top ten bestseller in Variety.
		According to Yankovic on the UHF DVD commentary track, the two scenes that earned the movie a PG-13 rating from the MPAA are the scene with poodles being thrown out the window, and the scene where Joe Earley (played by Emo Philips) accidentally cuts his thumb off with a table saw.

	UHF (1989)
		UHF, which was partially written by Weird Al tells the tale of George Newman (of course played by Weird Al) as young man who goes from one dead end job to another and seems to have a rather difficult time keeping his over active imagination in check.
		UHF is presented on a double-sided disc sporting both a full frame 4:3 version as well as the original theatrical 1.85:1 version.
		UHF has the reputation of being somewhat of a cult favorite and surprisingly the film still holds up rather well - despite having a lot of pop culture references to the music and films of the 80’s.

	Mutant Reviewers from Hell do "UHF"
		UHF is all this to me. Even if this movie were nothing but the commercial parodies alone, it would be fully worth the price of admission (whether it's saying "I love you with the gift of a spatula" or seeing the results of a shoddy cemetary, they're some of the best bits in this film).
		In the first part of UHF while George is imagining being in Raiders of the Lost Ark, one of his trusty sidekicks pulls a gun on him while he's not looking.
		UHF was filmed in Tulsa, OK, and made $6.16 million in the theaters.

	DVD Review: UHF
		It's one of those films that is predestined to be a cult movie even before it hit theaters.
		The soundtrack is also fairly limited due to the budget.
		Final Thoughts: Admittedly, the wackiness of "UHF" isn't going to be everyone's comedic cup-of-tea, but for fans of the film (or people who enjoy the style of "Naked Gun"/Zucker Brothers style of humor), MGM has produced a terrific DVD edition, offering a pretty decent presentation and lots of enjoyable and amusing supplements.

	UHF - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack and Other Stuff - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		UHF - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack and Other Stuff (1989), sometimes referred to simply as UHF, is the soundtrack to the comedy cult film UHF, by "Weird Al" Yankovic.
		The album featured many music cuts from the movie as well as some of the commercials ("Spatula City") and other parody bits ("Gandhi II").
		This is the second longest version, the longest being in the movie itself, during the credits crawl, and the shortest being released on later albums such as Greatest Hits Volume II.

	DVDCC.COM: Uhf DVD REVIEW
		UHF was released in 1989, and I was very much a “Weird Al” Yankovic fan at the time (still am, actually; just not quite to the obsessive degree that I was then).
		UHF, on the other hand, manages to remain humorous and (more importantly) entertaining all the way through.
		Audio: UHF is presented with a dolby 2.0 surround soundtrack, and it’s effective.

	UHF Movie -The 80s Rewind «
		This movie is a great example of triumph over adversity, and as a bonus, the gags hit more often than they miss.
		The little boy that Stanley sprays with the fire hose is Adam Maras, the son of the stunt coordinator for the movie, who is also one of the thugs later on in the movie.
		The soundtrack is a combination of tracks from the movie and several miscellaneous Al songs, including Tone Loc and Fine Young Cannibals parodies and a polka medley of Rolling Stones songs.

	Weird Al 3K: UHF- The only movie where people buy spatulas and drink from firehoses (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		UHF was actually believed to be a pretty good movie, but UHF was released during a year of blockbuster movies such as Batman.
		The soundtrack, as the name implies, has songs and sound clips from the movie: UHF, Spatula City, Let Me Be Your Hog, Money For Nothing/Beverly Hillbillies, Gandhi II, and Fun Zone.
		However, a soundtrack would not be complete with six tracks, so Al, Steve, and Jim recorded seven more songs: Attack of the Radioactive Hamsters From A Planet Near Mars, Isle Thing, Hot Rocks Polka, She Drives Like Crazy, Generic Blues, Spam, and Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota.

		The one thing good about this movie is the cyclop’s girlfriend, Dengee, who brings a breath of fresh air to this dark and grim tale.
		One of the saddest parts of this movie comes toward the end when the midgets are up against Evil and Fidget is crushed by a giant stone pillar.
		My favorite part of this movie came when he jumped out of a moving airplane from 30,000 feet without parachutes and landed on their feet and were fine.

	UHF Music
		UHF was a flop, but it was also a great movie.
		This album was released in 1989, and is in part the soundtrack to "Weird Al" Yankovic's movie UHF, but most of its contents is not included in the movie.
		On this album, included in the movie, is the song "Money For Nothing/Beverly Hillbillies," the movie's theme "UHF," two clips from the movie, and an instrumental called "Fun Zone." All of those are quite good.

	UHF Easter Egg : 27
		It's been a while since I've seen the movie, but I have the soundtrack and the Spatula City ad is on it.
		I counted only 19 usages of the word "Spatula." I believe that the version on the soundtrack is verbatim to the movie, but I could be wrong.
		In the film version of the Spatula City commercial, there are only twenty uses of the word "spatula" (the soundtrack version omits the first usage, thus, leaving nineteen), so the ever-so-loved twenty-seven egg was not applied here.

		Because of this, I am glad there are really funny and stupid movies like this one.
		The movie can be very amateurish at times and some jokes fall flat.
		Unfortunately, it is too often just tossed aside as a "dumb movie" by many who just don't give it a chance.

	IGN: House of 1000 Corpses Review
		Written and Directed by Rob Zombie, lead singer of the band White Zombie, this film has been described as a return to "real" horror movies, so gory that Universal wouldn't release it and so disturbing that theaters would have to have counselors ready to talk down distraught patrons.
		Spaulding has the potential to be one of those great cult horror movie characters but Zombie just abandons him for much of the film, choosing instead to focus on a group of backwoods psychos that look like they were lifted right out of a Texas Chainsaw Massacre sequel.
		As it is, there are times when the film just takes itself and its parade of old horror movie clichés way too seriously to be any fun.

		Now, this is one of those movies where you don't care much about the actual names of the characters, because you supply your own.
		This movie owes me that!" Everybody settles in for a boring night's sleep, and Spastic Girl does not disappoint, as she sleeps while still wearing her early 70's enormous eyeglasses.
		Add to that the fact that the soundtrack is overpowered by the Yeti's "growling", which seems to be the nonsense words "Iggly Ooogly Argh!" repeated over and over, and you have one of your better Bad Movie Monsters.

		He was more than happy to describe for us Zombi’s horror soundtrack experience, their unique sound and style, and the duo’s love for classic horror movies—and horror music.
		Soundtracks are now nothing more than advertisements, especially when you hear bands like Ill Nino or Disturbed.
		I saw it when I was pretty young, and it had a real impact on me. Not only the movie, but also the soundtrack led me to pursue the other John Carpenter movies.

		In effect, the movie's soundtrack embraces a similar resurrection: established artists either breathing new life into well-worn tunes or showcasing exclusive tracks and new lineups.
		And, like the movie, the soundtrack only succeeds on certain levels.
		The Wallflowers' recording of David Bowie's "Heroes" (the album's single) is hardly groundbreaking, and the predictable Puffdaddy treatment to Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir" drags on.

		The best computer monitors are superior to TV sets, as should be obvious to anyone who has ever tried using a TV as a computer monitor.
		Indeed, some computers will actually be unable to keep the image and the soundtrack in perfect synchronization.
		Speaking of the sound track: as we write, we are not aware of any computer capable of decoding 5.1 channel sound, whether Dolby Digital or DTS.

		After a slight dip that lowered with Even Worse, UHF is Even Better, as it shows Al back in silly form.
		However, there's also a lot of great stuff on this album that is not included in the movie, such as "The Hot Rocks Polka," which is a polka medley of Rolling Stones songs.

		Fortunately, his uncle wins a UHF television station in a poker-game (it was almost bankrupt), which George Newman is put in charge of.
		So when his Uncle Harvey decides to give him a chance to be the new station manager of the UHF station, Channel 62, George jumps at the chance by putting more live shows.
		The video for the "UHF" song is included as a bonus, as is Al hosting a series of deleted outtakes, which definitely should've been left off the movie, as most were filler that did nothing to advance the movie.

		My wife came downstairs in the middle of the movie and said, "What the hell are you watching?" But she did stay and watch for a bit, so it can't be that bad can it?
		She compared UHF to how men love the Stooges and women don't.
		Frankly, this is more of an excuse to insert his music in here as the soundtrack, how convenient.

		UHF- 1989: A commercially unsuccessful movie satirizing the television industry, starring Yankovic, Michael Richards, and Victoria Jackson.
		Al is so clean-cut that the producers couldn't find any of the typical angst-laced problems that make many rock stars' stories compelling (as Al noted in an interview with BTM), so their angle was on Al's life as a bachelor and (what they presumed was) his loneliness.

	UHF : filmcritic.com Movie Review
		Since it's debut in the late '80s, UHF has since managed to obtain some sort of cult status; mostly among potheads and manic, munchie-hungry, college kids.
		UHF stars parody song-writer Yankovic as a hapless dreamer who assumes control of a failing UHF television station.
		Honestly, UHF is really just a platform for Weird Al to engage in his usual assortment of skits, song parodies, and wacky hijinks.
