As much as people (especially video distributors) may want to call this film "so bad it's good," the simple truth is that it's incredibly boring. It opens with gassing an elephant to death, then it moves into a plot with some typical old-movie types going to Mexico. The youngest gets married during the vacation. This film is said to be two movies cobbled together, and it certainly appears that way. Until Hitler's wax head appears in a jar, it's pretty dull, with nothing interesting do do with its stock characters. When the head finally does appear, it's hardly ever shown, and when it melts in a jar is pretty messy. The moments of Hitler's head are the only things, save an occasional joke, that are funny, and the film contains nothing to recommend it, unless one is in media studies and interested in the portrayal of the archetypal young girl that gets married, because it is so stock, and not only that, the relationship is never really shown!
