Schiffsjunge ahoi!: Directed by Adam Resnick. With Chris Elliott, Ritch Brinkley, James Gammon, Brian Doyle-Murray. A foul-mouthed finishing school graduate mistakenly winds up on an ill-fated fishing boat and faces the wrath of a crew that considers him bad luck.

“Iu0026#39;ve been a Chris Elliot fan since watching him on his old television series u0026quot;Get a Life.u0026quot; I think he is the precursor to comedians such as Tom Green, and the modern gross-out comedy. The image of Elliot licking the boat with soapy water comes to mind. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eLots of people would label this movie as one of the worst movies of all time, but itu0026#39;s consciously absurd (or u0026quot;wackyu0026quot; as Christ Elliotu0026#39;s character might say). u0026quot;Worstu0026quot; movies are ones that think they are legit, like The Order, or Batman and Robin. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThat being said, Cabin Boy is not the best comedy of all time. The crazy-funny parts are laugh out loud funny, but spread too far apart. I think this movie should have been wall-to-wall laughs. But itu0026#39;s worth it for the good parts, and Chris Elliot deserves our attention.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWatch some night alongside Freddy Got Fingered and Clifford.”
