Vacation all you ever wanted!
Vacation time to get away!
It's time for takeoff to go see MARTY MOOSE!
It's HUMP DAY in New York and pretty much everywhere right now, and everyone needs a laugh. Get ready to order the classic 1983 National Lampoon's VACATION when it comes out on 4k! The laughs hold up over the years and we watched the version that includes commentary from the actors, director and producer which makes it THAT MUCH FUNNIER! Not only will you laugh so hard you'll cry, but you will sleep so well and maybe better than ever because you really needed that laugh! We do not give a single frog's fat ass if any of this offends you because it is SUPER FUNNY. Can you believe this masterpiece was shot in just 55 days?
Of course it opens with a fabulous postcard sequence of America which in New York includes the Twin Towers and the George Washington Bridge.
Why you should watch:
Watch closely how Chevy Chase likes to do dishes (plus we like the bunny theme in the kitchen)
It is refreshingly politically incorrect which makes it that much funnier
A vibrating bed from the 80s...need we say more?
Aunt Edna was from Sid Caesar
Cousin Jane is from Ally McBeal
Learn how not to place the tray at a drive in dinner
Christie had on a flesh color bodysuit in the pool
They used five station wagons...and how many really did survive?
Did you know the clerk is Brian Murray, older brother of Bill?
How can you tell if someone is really asleep?!
They can use the Chariots of Fire Music because that too is by WARNER BROTHERS!
Public Speaking Tips: A Quest for Fun speech!
Did you know some of the Ferrari shots of Christie Brinkley were done from a helicopter?
and P.S. Don't Die Unless Somebody's Home
This is just a fraction of the fun you will learn when you watch this movie in this version, pushing the humor factor to the limit and beyond! We absolutely love it!

About the Film:
Everything is planned, packed – and about to go hilariously wrong. The Griswolds are going on vacation. In the driver’s seat is Clark Griswold (Chevy Chase), an Everyman eager to share the open road and the wonders of family togetherness. Myriad mishaps, crude kin (Randy Quaid), encounters with a temptress (Christie Brinkley), financial woes, Aunt Edna (Imogene Coca) on the roof, one security guard (John Candy) and 2,460 miles later, it’s a wonder the Griswolds are together. There’s never been a family vacation like it. Except maybe yours. And that helps explain why National Lampoon’s Vacation remains so popular… and so very funny.
