So, 'American Tickler' is one of those quirky comedies that really plays with the absurdity of American cinema. It's essentially a patchwork of skits that loosely parody various films from the era. The pacing is a bit all over the place, which adds to the charm if you're in the right mood. The practical effects are, let's just say, delightfully rough around the edges, which gives it a unique feel. The performances can be hit or miss, but that's part of its oddball appeal. It’s like a time capsule of 70s humor, layered with that irreverent tone that was pretty common back then. If you enjoy offbeat comedies that don’t take themselves too seriously, this one's worth a look.
'American Tickler' hasn't seen a lot of re-releases, which adds a bit of a treasure hunt element for collectors. It's not the most widely known, so finding a good copy can be a challenge. There’s a certain niche appeal to it, especially among those who appreciate the variety of 70s film parodies. While it’s not exactly a household name, it’s definitely caught the eye of collectors who enjoy the strange and the eclectic.
