UHF-An Original Vintage Movie Poster for Weird Al Yankovics Surreal TV Comedy Epic with Victoria Jackson, Trinidad Silva, Gedde Watanabe, Fran Drescher, Billy Barty, and Emo Philips. Universally acknowledged as the greatest movie of all time, UHF captures 'Weird Al' Yankovic at the absolute peak of his strange and surreal comic superpowers! Co-written and directed by the great Jay Levy, Weird Al's first (and only) movie is absolutely everything you would want from this underappreciated comic genius. Overflowing with the same goofy charm as a Weird Al record, this masterwork delivers lightning in a bottle with plenty of movie parodies, and a wide array of "Al-isms" like Twinkie-Wiener Sandwiches, and detailed rants that include the word "weasel". Containing every wacky gag imaginable, the movie tells the story of slacker George Newman (Yankovic), who inherits a defunct TV station, and creates a bunch of loony shows, soon becoming the most popular station in town. Al and his pals then have to fight off the vampiric corporate raider R.J. Fletcher (Kevin McCarthy), who owns a competing traditional station and is out for blood. Whether it's "Gandhi II", "Conan the Librarian" or "Wheel of Fish", "UHF" stomps around in the strange nooks and crannies of Yankovic's mind. See Weird Al singing the "Beverly Hillbillies" theme song and witness nonstop sight gags that will have you dying of laughter and peeing in your pants. ACTORS: Weird Al Yankovic, Victoria Jackson, Kevin McCarthy, Michael Richards, Trinidad Silva, Anthony Geary, Gedde Watanabe, Fran Drescher, Billy Barty, and Emo Philips DIRECTOR: Jay Levey WRITER(S): Al Yankovic and Jay Levey (Screenplay), Charles Holloway (based on the sketch "Conan the Librarian") CINEMATOGRAPHY: David Lewis SCORE: John Du Prez THIS IS A VINTAGE, ORIGINAL POSTER PRODUCED AND DISTRIBUTED BY THE MOVIE STUDIO.

Please Note: These Posters are anywhere from 20-70 years old and were issued to movie theaters at the time of the film's release. All Posters came through Auction, Gallery purchase, or from the original movie theater proprietors. Although all posters are stored FLAT and carefully maintained, original poster art of this age can never be in perfect unused condition as it was originally displayed in a Movie Theater. Any Folds, Tears, or Pinholes are detailed in the notes and close-up pictures. Any glare in the image is due to the camera angle and is not a defect in the poster. There are NO REFUNDS, RETURNS, or EXCHANGE on the sale of original movie posters. Given the age and fragility of these vintage posters, it’s not possible to offer refunds after the poster has been shipped and handled. We've gone to great lengths to detail in notes and photographs the specifics of each poster's condition and individual attributes. Don't hesitate to contact us through Etsy if you have additional questions. We want you to make your purchase with complete confidence. The purchase of original, vintage movie posters is an investment in poster art and movie history. Please consider your purchase carefully to plan display and/or storage options once you receive your poster.

Sometimes, a bad piece art can be more valued than the good one, and not just for reasons of bad taste. Enter the African (mostly from Ghana) bootleg movie posters, which have, as a matter of fact, a rich tradition.
