Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 80’s (1473 movies items)

" A college professor named Clifford Skridlow (Dan Aykroyd goes undercover as a Chicago pimp disguised by a bushy wig in this comedy from director Michael Pressman. When Smooth Walker gets hunted by his gangster rival, Mom, he foists his bevy of hookers on the professor. Among the four hookers who are suddenly in his undercover life are Fran Drescher in an early role as an archetypal Jewish princess, and Donna Dixon as another of the high-class call-girls (Dixon and Aykroyd were later married)"

Tier Ranking: The Worst Films of 1982 - 1983 (44 movies items)

"Critics wanted to see another doctor instead, but Rober Ebert liked it? My thoughts? It was modestly ok, but not it’s also not one of Dan Aykroyd’s best films."
