'Nasty Newshounds' is this quirky little comedy from the late '80s that captures the chaotic vibe of the press world. The rivalry between the two reporters is pitched just right, with a blend of slapstick and sharp dialogue that keeps the pacing lively. It’s filled with practical effects and some memorable sight gags that really give it a distinct flavor compared to more polished films of the time. The performances, while not award-winning, have a certain charm that makes the characters feel relatable, if not a bit ridiculous. You can sense that the filmmakers were really just having fun with the concept, which adds to the overall appeal.
This film has had a limited release history, often overshadowed by bigger comedies from the era. Collectors find it interesting due to its scarcity on physical media and the nostalgia attached to '80s comedies that aren't as well-remembered. It's not a common title at conventions or in collector circles, which tends to pique interest among those who appreciate the offbeat nature of lesser-known films. If you come across a copy, it's definitely worth considering for a more eclectic collection.
