The Gong Show Movie

In this outrageous comedy, Chuck Barris stars as himself in a fictional week of chaos and hilarity as host and creator of "The Gong Show". Witness outrageous competitors, stressful situations, and physical comedy galore as Barris navigates the pressures of his TV show, culminating in a nervous breakdown that sends him fleeing to the Moroccan desert. The result is a sidesplitting romp of slapstick humor, bawdy jokes, and wacky characters - but don't expect critical acclaim, as this film was universally panned by critics and quickly withdrawn from theaters.
