About this movie

Going Berserk stars the outrageous Emmy-winning SCTV comedy troupe of John Candy, Joe Flaherty and Eugene Levy. Hilarity ensues when a chauffeur (John Candy) is brainwashed by a religious aerobics cult to kill his soon-to-be father-in-law, a United States Congressman. This off-the-wall comedy lampoons everything from religious cults to Kung Fu movies to "Father Knows Best" (complete with a cameo by the show's original "Princess" Elinor Donahue). Featuring such comedy character actors as Paul Dooley, Richard Libertini and Bill ("Ya Doesn't Has to Call Me Mr. Johnson") Saluga, Going Berserk recreates the inspired madness of the Marx Brothers and the Three Stooges.

Must watch for the scene between John Candy and Ernie Hudson escaping from the back of a police van chained together. Hysterical.
