J-Men Forever!
‘Tells a tale of world conquest by sex, drugs and rock and roll’
Cult classic J-Men Forever! (1979) was a mainstay on the USA network’s Night Flight (titles below).
And after Night Flight went away, J-Men vanished – only quietly showing up many years later on DVD.
J-Men Forever! was the brainchild of Philip Proctor and Peter Bergman of the Firesign Theatre – using cobbled together footage from old serials to create a silly (actually, immature is the right word) new movie; similar to Woody Allen’s What’s Up Tiger Lily (1966).
The Caped Madman (above) and The evil Lightening Bug steal the show. The film’s score features music from The Tubes, Head East, Budgie and Billy Preston.
