A 1980 American comedy film starring Marty Feldman and Andy Kaufman as con artist Dr. Sebastian Melmoth and televangelist Armageddon T. Thunderbird, respectively, about a naive monk sent to Hollywood to raise $5,000 for his monastery's survival, who befriends Melmoth and gets caught up in the televangelist's schemes. With a satirical twist, the film critiques the commercialization of religion, featuring eccentric characters, church services on wheels, and a surprise reveal about G.O.D., a sophisticated master computer linked to Thunderbird's finances.
