Follow the story behind one of America's most legendary humor publications in this hilarious documentary. From the 1970s thru the 1990s, the hippest and most outrageous comedy in print was *The National Lampoon*. The groundbreaking humor magazine pushed the limits of taste and acceptability, parodying everything from politics, religion, entertainment and the whole of American lifestyle. The print publication even branched out into successful radio shows, record albums, live stage revues and iconic movies, including *Animal House* and *National Lampoon’s Vacation*. *The National Lampoon* launched the careers of legends like John Belushi, Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, Christopher Guest, Gilda Radner and many more. Nominated for Best Docu...mentary Feature Film at the **Edinburgh International Film Festival**. *"A frenetic, rough-edged, unapologetic tribute to the Lampoon, featuring some amazing archival footage, nifty bits of animation and dozens of straightforward talking-head interviews that crackle and pop." - Richard Roeper, **Chicago Sun-Times***
