I haven't watched the movie. I know that Kilmer played Jim Morrison, but I had no idea who else was in the cast. Sorry. George

It doesn't look familiar to me, either. Was something important cropped out? George

It was, indeed, Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid. As I mentioned in another thread, Steve Martin had a run of genre spoofs: "Pennies From Heaven" was a spoof of musicals; "The Man With Two Brains" was a horror spoof; and "Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid" was a spoof of film noir detective stories, cleverly bringing in footage from old black and white films. George

Correct. Vic Morrow and two kids died in a helicopter accident during the filming. The scene was actually supposed to show the redemption of Morrow's bigot character, as he carries two Vietnamese children to safety. The scene was removed in the final cut. On a lighter note, that "episode" also had an homage to "Animal House," when one of the American soldiers in the swamp says, "I sure wish we hadn't fragged Lt. Niedermeyer!" At the end of "Animal House," where the futures of all the Deltas are briefly mentioned, Niedermeyer was "killed by his own troops in Vietnam." The opening sequence, Dan Aykroyd and Albert Brooks talk about a sci-fi episode about a man with a stopwatch which could stop time. Brooks claims it was an Outer Limits episode; Aykroyd correctly identifies it as a Twilight Zone episode ("A Kind of Stopwatch," to be precise). George

Correct. Martin wants to put a disembodied brain in a great body. He finds a hooker (Randi Brooks) and was going to inject her with cleaning solution (the syringe) to kill her brain, but not her body. He can't do it (probably because of the hooker's nasally whine). Raf's up! George

You're right about Martin, of course. This was when he was making movies of different genres. (For example, not this movie, was the Busby Berkeley knock-off "Pennies from Heaven.") George

Still not getting it. I suspect that a may be in my future. George

Correct. George
