Yeah, unlike Wain's Childrens Hospital and They Came Together, there really is no winking to the audience that, hey. That causes the tonal confusion a lot of people get watching it. The camera plays it straight and never lets on that its in on the joke with the characters. The Whelk: WHAS is a very very silly, goofy series of connected skits that at casual glance looks like it might be an actual serious 80s Summer Camp movie. That's what makes the joke funny.Īm I insane? Is google gaslighting me on this? Was it a deleted scene that nobody else cared to put on youtube? Help! MEDIEVAL KID: Are you? Because my mom actually does have a problem with the kitty litter.ĬURE GIRL: I know. On another note, when I was watching WHAS for the first time in a while yesterday, it was missing what was, in my memory, my favorite scene, and the internet doesn't seem to remember it either, so I come to all you trustworthy beautiful people.īasically, the 'indoor kids' are laying around outside, and something like the following exchange occurs:ĬURE GIRL: Yeah, well, your mom sucks kitty litter.
From the side of 'this is some of the funniest shit I've ever seen,' I can absolutely still understand somebody not laughing once. You are either on its comedic wavelength or you aren't. Cosine: I think ti truly is the culty-est of cult movies.
