o. c. and stiggs be one of my favorite 80 movie . i truly wish it would get issue on dvd but i realize the chance of this be remote . the movie do not have too much of a plot . and and while i love the liberal trashing of the extreme right wing conservative neighbor and the movie be quite mean spirit at time . it be tough to classify this film and but i believe it strike a chord with me due to the anti establishment mentality of the two lead character . the story center around the two lead character and high school guy with way too much time on their hand with an affinity for the african music stylings of king sunny ade and an extreme antipathy towards the ultra right wing insurance agency owner who live in their neighborhood . the movie follow the two lead a they prank the family ( the schwabs ) and otherwise try to survive a record arizona heat wave by bother a many people a they can . for instance and their joint purchase of the gila monster . a giant monster truck tire old school convertible which make more noise and belch out more smoke and fume than any self respecting oil refinery . perhaps it be my be 16 when i first saw the movie and latch onto ti for be different ( and funny ) and but hey and if it ever get re release and i will re buy it . the movie isn not for everyone and but i enjoy it immensely . one quote in particular be worth the price of the rental back in 1988 represent that the problem with insurance . destruction just isn not permanent anymore . and and if i can ever find my old vhs copy ( many and many friend have borrow this tape ) and i need to find out the title of the king sunny ade song he play in the impromptu concert scene .
