Take off, eh!
This week on The VHS Club, we're cracking open a cold one and revisiting the Canadian cult comedy classic, Strange Brew, which stars Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas as the legendary Bob & Doug McKenzie.
From beer factories and hockey jokes to bizarre villains, Shakespeare references, and some of the most quotable lines to ever come out of Canada, we're diving deep into one of the strangest comedies of the VHS era.
We'll discuss:
🍁 How Bob & Doug McKenzie became cultural icons
🍺 The surprising Hamlet connection
📼 Our favorite scenes, quotes, and moments
🎬 Behind-the-scenes trivia and production stories
🇨🇦 Whether Strange Brew still holds up today
⭐ Our final Christian Tater ratings
Was Strange Brew a staple in your VHS collection? Or is this your first trip to the Elsinore Brewery? Join the conversation live and let us know.
Fun fact! Strange Brew is loosely based on Shakespeare's Hamlet. Once you know that, it's impossible to unsee, from the dead father and evil brewery owner to the romance and revenge plot hiding underneath all the beer jokes.
