Liquid A$$ets

About This Movie

Liquid A$$ets is a quirky 1982 comedy that takes a satirical jab at the absurdities of wealth and the theater scene. Mr. Cashbox, a character drowning in his own riches, stumbles into a world of eccentricity when he decides to finance a doomed play. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it adds to the charm, reflecting the chaos of its narrative. You get some delightful performances that highlight the absurdity of the characters, especially the self-absorbed director Stan Slavsky. The practical effects are minimal but serve the offbeat humor well, making it a fascinating piece for those who appreciate the unconventional and the bizarre in cinema.

Liquid A$$ets has seen a modest release history, primarily on VHS, making it a bit of a rarity today. While not widely known, it has garnered a niche following among collectors who appreciate off-kilter comedies and satirical takes on wealth and the arts. Its scarcity in physical formats adds to its allure, with only a handful of copies floating around, making it a curious piece for those interested in the lesser-known titles of the early '80s.
