the fear of mutate into a small apartment and in a world where building be forbidden . or the best metaphor for a fear of progress or modernity and i have ever come across . one of the odd thing i have ever see . richard lester must have an impressive budget for this . all the set be ruin and but they be amaze ruin and cathedral submerge in water and escalate to nowhere . a bed sit room in the middle of the desert . at some point in the past england lose ww3 and the short and most nuclear of war and which have leave englands survive population of about 20 or so completely and if not near completely insane . those that be not insane and like dudley more in his balloon power police car and forbid people from any kind of re construction ( less the attack be re provoke ) and well these other people be suffer bizarre mutation . mostly into furniture . after a lord transforms and slowly and hilariously into a full on bed sit room and others begin mutate and into cabinents and parrot . the life of a pregnant girl and her family who have be live on the subway ( rid in perpetual circle ) and who decide to go back to the surface world and coincides with the story of our lord the bed sit room and which represent a real problem . not only be the man an object and hes the first new building and and sign of civilization in year . when he ask a doctor what he should do about it and my advice and charge 20 quid rent and be mindful of draft . hijinks ensue and and though bleak at time ( a few shade light of a dead baby joke ) and richard lester madcap the bed sit room and be one of those odd and clever and allegorical comedy and that just too smart for it own good . too political and absurd in it time and to have be properly appreciate . for people who like monty python and alejandro jodorowsky and or steven soderbergs schizopolis and of whom richard lester be the driving influence and this be the only post aspca slapstick comedy you need to watch .
